Field Notes

Description:

It belongs to family Armadillidae . It is an crustacean with 14 parts to its body. These parts make its body flexible so that it can curl itself for protection. Generally 1 cm long and move fastly. Found in damp dark places in forests and bushy areas. I clicked it during night with artifical light of my mobile without using flash of camera.
