The purpose of this experiment was to be able to identify certain substances that the Armadillidium vulgare is attracted to or would be likely to move towards. The substances were three different liquids and three different solids. Another purpose of the lab was to learn the characteristics of an Armadillidium vulgare also known as a pillbug (Mader, 2013). The main topic was based on whether the pillbug would be attracted to certain substances, and the reason they’re attracted to it. The pillbug, was originally native to the Mediterranean, but has since then been introduced to different environments and habitats in other countries such as the United States (Holland A., 2014). The pillbug is not an insect, it is a crustacean, which is an arthropod
