Specimen: Deep Sea Isopod (Bathynomus doederleinii) Frame Color: Black Frame Dimensions: 9" x 9" x 1.75"
The Deep Sea Isopod (Bathynomus doederleinii) is a fascinating crustacean that inhabits the dark depths of the ocean, often found at depths of hundreds to thousands of feet. As a distant relative of pill bugs, these deep-sea scavengers have evolved hard, segmented exoskeletons and multiple pairs of legs to navigate the ocean floor. They play a crucial role in marine ecosystems by feeding on dead organisms, helping to recycle nutrients in their extreme environment.
This expertly preserved and framed specimen showcases the intricate details of the Deep Sea Isopod’s armored body and jointed appendages, offering a glimpse into the mysterious world of deep-sea life. A perfect addition to any natural history collection, this striking display brings an element of marine science and discovery into your home or office.
📌 Please note: Each specimen is unique, so slight variations in size, color, and shape may occur. The Deep Sea Isopod is mounted in a glass-front black wooden frame, ready for hanging or tabletop display.
