Logbook entry from Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: Pillbug

First Location: Agon Wastes - Portal Terminal

Pillbugs prefer to dwell in dark caverns, though they can exist in lit areas. Navigating with a series of sensitive antennae, they roam through caves in search of moss and fungus. Pillbugs can move rapidly, and will ram unwary targets to clear their path as they search for food. A Pillbug can be jarred loose from a surface with a concussive blast: doing so reveals its vulnerable belly.^[1]
