3 types of woodlice
Rockport, Knox County, Maine, USA
May 26, 2009
Size: 1/2" and less
I'm assuming that there are three different species here. The smallest type was found under rocks, bark, and at the base of plants. The other two types were either under loose tree bark or under rocks surrounded by deciduous leaf litter. In some places all three species were found in the same spot and all were found within 50 yards of each other.
