Woodlice - Oniscus asellus
Copyright © 2006 Jim McClarin

Woodlice - Oniscus asellus
Hudson, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, USA
November 1, 2006
Size: about 14-15mm sans cerci
Switching from normal closeup lens to the lens I ripped out of a defunct photocopier I was able to capture a fair amount of detail of the tail end of the individual with the cream-colored spots on its topside.
