Of course. I'm not sure if land isopods are called anything else, actually.

Ok, then you are right because there are many specific species of wood louse or pill bug. But, still a wood louse likely.

Nope. These are different from the rolling isopods, so species identify will be a bit more difficult for me.

Thanks! I was truly fascinated by the version that rolls into a ball as a child. We used to play with them when we found them under logs. Very cool to see. Never realized until I was an adult that they were crustaceans instead of insects.

great info Apple

And, the most fascinating thing about woodlice is that there is a species of spider that only feeds on them. Fascinating.

They are actually a land living crustacean not an insect.

This is some type of wood louse. Did it roll into a ball or not? If it did then it is for sure one of these:

We used to call these rolly-pollys when I was a child.
