A team of six completed this week's survey under hot and mostly sunny conditions. Female pillbugs have a brood pouch called a marsupium in which they carry their eggs and newly hatched young for several weeks. These are nourished by marsupial fluid produced by the mother until the babies emerge, as in the image shown below.
