I found this dead baby bug on my floor last night. It looks like a roach nymph except that it appears to have 12 legs instead of 6. Your help is greatly appreciated! Attachments:

Good news...it is not a roach nymph. And, you are correct to notice the number of legs. It is not insect at all, but a "Sowbug" which is not a bug at all, but in the Order Isopoda. I think it would belong to one of two genera, Porcellio or Oniscus. They are actually terrestrial crustaceans.
