So, if not A. nasatum ...
... what other species did you have in mind?

None at all...
I'm merely trying to clear out ID Request. I'm not a crustacean expert, and I generally won't move something to the species level unless I know that the individual who suggested an ID is a recognized authority (Bob Patterson for moths, Andy Hamilton for hoppers, etc). Given that your bio states that you are not an expert, I decided to move the image to the suborder level. No offense is intended--you could very well be spot on with the ID--it's just my way of playing it safe and keeping the Guide as free from error as possible.

Okey-dokey
@Kurt: For your own personal purposes - no worries, it's nasatum alright ;o)

Should be
Armadillidium nasatum, even if the "nose" is not clearly showing due to the head being lifted upward. In NY I don't think there has ever been another similar species recorded.
