Description
English: A fairly common mediterranean pill woodlouse of species Armadillidium granulatum.
Pill woodlice are small land-living crustaceans of the order Isopoda, with seven pairs of legs, which roll-up in a almost perfect spherical shape when disturbed. The picture shows a specimen returning to its normal position after the danger has passed.
Français : Armadillidium granulatum, un cloporte commun de Méditerranée se déroule après que le danger est passé. Les cloportes forment un sous-ordre des crustacés isopodes, les Oniscides. Les cloportes du genre Armadillidium sp. ont la possibilité de se rouler en boule, ce qui est à l'origine de leurs noms dans certaines langues, dont l'anglais (par ex. pill bug, litt. bêbête-pilule).
