Macro Pill Bug - ダンゴムシマクロ!

in #photography6 years ago

DSC01898-1.jpg

These primitive looking creatures are not bugs, or even insects, they are in fact terrestrial crustaceans! Closer to shrimp and crabs than they are to centipedes and millipedes which they closely resemble. Though to be sure there are very short stocky millipedes that are nearly indistinguishable from the pill bug!

以外ですが、虫ではありません!甲殻類なんですよ!似ているムカデやヤスデの仲間がありますけれどこのダンゴムシはカニやエビの仲間です!不思議ですね海は遠いよ!

Enjoy the B&W edit too! Which do you prefer?
白黒のも見て、どちらが好きでしょうか?

Wow!

A brief description, solid, and very clear!
Thanks @mweich!
I thought what animal was that !?😊

The smaller you go, the freakier things are! (and beautiful too :P)

good photos, although I like black and white more!

Yeah, it does have more impact and looks a touch more alien!

I think it is a beetle. Apparently they are a kind of crab group. I love black and white photos. Thanks for your knowledge @mweich.

Yeah, they've got too many legs to be a beetle! Thanks for your comment and support!

You are welcome my friend 😊.

they really are not insects ...??

Yeah, it's a bit unexpected but nevertheless true!
