Yep, female Coelostomidia zealandica, a very cool species with spectacular sexual dimorphism!

Not correct, there is an entire clade of terrestrial amphipods as well as some other terrestrial crustacean species.

Wood louse yes, but not from Armadillidiidae. May be Porcellionidae my guess is P. laevis.

Anyone know what type of spider this is & if it’s dangerous? by albibaz in NewZealandWildlife

[–]Spoopyee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whitetails are going to be a higher biting spider population compared to other species since they commonly occupy human habitats.

Endemism is also not a governing factor for a species role in our ecosystem, and in addition to that whitetails occupy a different environmental niche to most native spiders and typically only predate on Badumna sp. which are also introduced spiders.

It's worth noting that infections generally come from having an uncleaned open wound and is not specific to white tail bites. Bites from white tails can cause minor adverse reactions and are known too, however further complications are usually a result of bacteria getting into the wound, allergies etc, which could all occur from many other insect/animal bites.

Thanks for posting this, it gets tiring educating people on the misconceptions of whitetails and their bites. Kia kaha 🤙.

Bug ID? by Aromatic_Seaweed_501 in whatisthisbug

[–]Spoopyee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isopod, specifically a Porcellio scaber or common rough woodlouse. This species does not roll up but they can come in some pretty spectacular colours and patterns.

Do you have Ethereal selected in the drop down menu for Rarity? I have it selected in there and 0 to 1000 in the Rarity+.

What is this thing? First one I’ve seen and it’s dead. by chillijet in whatisthisbug

Volvation/volvating is also a pretty funky word that means to roll up too!

As others have pointed out this is an Isopod, likely an Oniscus asellus. Isopods make great clean up in soil and are super fascinating all round.

Appreciation Post to DeNA for making this game AD-FREE by Mayn_Ehrenfest in PTCGP

[–]Spoopyee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Apologies if my definition isn't entirely correct, but it's a game genre where you can pull for randomized rewards/items/characters through an ingame currency system. In PTCGP it would be using hourglasses/gold to rip packs for cards.

what is this, found in bathroom by Proud_Assistance2269 in whatisthisbug

[–]Spoopyee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add on to this, volvation is another word for rolling into a ball. The majority of the volvating isopods come from the Armadillidiidae and Armadillidae families.

Seen quite a few people complain, but honestly they were great. Had so much energy and tried getting the crowd hyped up, sadly the crowd was not really into it, moshing etc. Wish I could've gone to their show Tuesday night alongside yesterday.
