Those dreaming of a large springtail species can finally rest easy! This species is large, active, and hardy and does well when kept with frogs, toads, roaches, isopods, and other vivarium inhabitants. Excellent ventilation is a must if the air is humid, though. This stock has now been examined and the presence of simple rather than tridentate spines on the furculum cements the ID as Tomocerus vulgaris instead of minor as originally thought.
