 | | A woodlouse, also known as a pill bug (genus Armadillidium only), armadillo bug, sow bug, slater, ball bug, potato bug, doodlebug, or roley-poley / roly-poly, is a terrestrial crustacean with a rigid, segmented, calcareous exoskeleton and fourteen jointed limbs. |
 | | In linguistics, asking what a person calls a woodlouse is a common question used to determine what part of the United States a person is from based on the name the person uses for woodlice. |
 | | A female woodlouse will keep fertilised eggs in a patch on the underside of her body until they hatch into small, pink offspring. |
