Brachoria Calceata
''Brachoria'' is a genus of polydesmidan millipedes in the family Xystodesmidae inhabiting the Eastern United States. Also known as the Appalachian mimic millipedes, at least 30 species are known, with highest diversity in the Appalachian Mountains, especially the Cumberland Plateau and Ridge and Valley Province. Species of ''Brachoria'' are boldly patterned with yellow, orange, red, violet that contrasts with a black background, and in the Appalachians some species mimic species of ''Apheloria'' where they co-occur, a phenomenon known as Müllerian mimicry Species There are over 30 species of ''Brachoria'' which differ mainly in characteristics of the male gonopods (reproductive appendages), but since many species have very small known ranges, geographic location can aid in identification as well. * ''Brachoria badbranchensis'' * '' Brachoria blackmountainensis'' * '' Brachoria calceata'' * '' Brachoria campcreekensis'' * '' Brachoria cedra'' * '' Brachoria conta'' * '' Bracho ...

Animal
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the Kingdom (biology), biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals Heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, are Motility, able to move, can Sexual reproduction, reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during Embryogenesis, embryonic development. Over 1.5 million Extant taxon, living animal species have been Species description, described—of which around 1 million are Insecta, insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have Ecology, complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a Symmetry in biology#Bilate ...

Gonopod
Gonopods are specialized appendages of various arthropods used in reproduction or egg-laying. In males, they facilitate the transfer of sperm from male to female during mating, and thus are a type of intromittent organ. In crustaceans and millipedes, gonopods are modified walking or swimming legs. Gonopods may be highly decorated with elaborate structures which may play roles in sperm competition, and can be used to differentiate and identify closely related species. Gonopods generally occur in one or more pairs, as opposed to the single (un-paired) reproductive organs such as the aedeagus of insects or the Opiliones penis, penis of harvestmen. Insects In insects, gonopods are appendages of the genital segment that may be used in insemination, or that comprise the egg-laying apparatus. Crustaceans In male decapoda, decapod crustaceans, gonopods are modified swimming appendages (pleopods). The anterior two pair of pleopods in males are modified for sperm transferring, with dif ...

Brachoria Flammipes
''Brachoria'' is a genus of polydesmidan millipedes in the family Xystodesmidae inhabiting the Eastern United States. Also known as the Appalachian mimic millipedes, at least 30 species are known, with highest diversity in the Appalachian Mountains, especially the Cumberland Plateau and Ridge and Valley Province. Species of ''Brachoria'' are boldly patterned with yellow, orange, red, violet that contrasts with a black background, and in the Appalachians some species mimic species of ''Apheloria'' where they co-occur, a phenomenon known as Müllerian mimicry Species There are over 30 species of ''Brachoria'' which differ mainly in characteristics of the male gonopods (reproductive appendages), but since many species have very small known ranges, geographic location can aid in identification as well. * ''Brachoria badbranchensis'' * ''Brachoria blackmountainensis'' * ''Brachoria calceata'' * ''Brachoria campcreekensis'' * ''Brachoria cedra'' * ''Brachoria conta'' * ''Brachori ...
