This may be Porcellio dilatatus. This is a broader-bodied species with texture limited to the center of the tergites (transversly speaking). Otherwise quite similar to Porcellio scaber with which it is often mistaken. More research is necessary to be certain, however. It looks a bit off compared to the ones I know from overseas.
