Default ID-ing a larvae(?)

Hi, everybody,

Out on my concrete porch, between my plant buckets, where there
is, of course, a bit of water and excess soil, I just saw some
suspicious creepy-crawlies:

Medium-ight brownish in colour.

Body looks slightly ribbed in texture (like a slater/rolly-
polly/pill-bug/etc.)

Maybe 1.5 cm long, and .5 cm wide for the main body.

Has a thin tail, about as long as the main body.

Didn't see any legs.

Sitting in blobs of several, but started individually crawling a
few centemetres along the concrete. Crawling was worm-like, with
that sort of wave through their bodies.

Sorry, I don't have any pix.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance...



You'll probably have better results asking in sci.bio.entomology, esp. if
this is an Aussie/NZ critter.
