Over time it has spread to tropical islands across Africa, Asia, and South America, and it is also found in heated tropical greenhouses in Europe. True to its name, which means \"light-shunning\", it spends most of its time hidden in the substrate. It is appreciated for its compact size, glossy, finely ringed body, and peaceful nature, making it a charming addition to any collection of miniature diplopods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThese millipedes are small, hardy, and easy to maintain, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced keepers interested in microfauna.
