The word albino generates few search results on Bugguide and I assume there is a good reason for that. I've read debates about the term on other forums, but retained little of it. The animal in these photos is very atypically pale. What is the best way to describe this? Amelanistic, leucistic, albino? I have encountered thousands and thousands of Oniscus and this is the first one like this I've personally ever seen. I've got video of a normal coloration individual molting on Youtube. I'm not sure it is okay to share links here, but it illustrates the point for future viewers of these photos that even molting or freshly molted isopods are not this pale.
