This a photo I took in the 'bio shack' of the "Dominator" on a research cruise in the Gulf of Mexico. The photo was in response to a conflict with the kitchen crew about us storing our beasts in the galley freezer. One guy said "You aren't bringing those giant cockroaches in here". This photo was staged to 'freak them out'. Sadly, no one outside of our bio group found it humorous.(for taxonomy-minded folks these are Bathynomus giganteus, the worlds largest known isopod, the order that includes sowbugs and roly-polies and were collected from 6,500 feet in the Gulf of Mexico. The largest in the photo is 35 cm, 14 inches long!)

Still probably the same beast. I posed these (they were long dead) by fanning out their tails. Their closest competitor for size is 10 cm or so. There are many species in this genus so most likely saw one of those or a variation of this one.
