      Pill millipedes (looks like Glomeris marginata) vs isopods (some Armadillidium species as it can roll up into a ball). Incredible case of convergent evolution

        holy cow, I was today years old when I found out they weren’t the same family.

        i thought both pictures, top/bottom, were an interesting factoid where they are crustaceans… you mean to tell me the top one is a millipede?! my life is a lie.
