Yes, rollie pollies, also known as pill bugs or Armadillidiidae, are related to shrimp as they both belong to the class Malacostraca within the phylum Arthropoda. While rollie pollies are terrestrial and have adapted to life on land, shrimp are aquatic. Both share common characteristics of crustaceans, such as a hard exoskeleton and jointed limbs. Despite their different habitats, they are part of the same broader group of arthropods.
