Metamastigophorophyllon
''Metamastigophorophyllon'' is a genus of Millipede, millipedes in the Family (biology), family Anthroleucosomatidae. This genus includes millipedes found in Azerbaijan, Iran, Russia, and Georgia (country), Georgia. All five species in this genus have 31 segments in adults (counting the collum as the first segment and the telson as the last). This genus is notable for including the only species in the Order (biology), order Chordeumatida with 31 segments rather than the 30 segments usually observed in adults in this order. Discovery and taxonomy The Romanian Zoology, zoologist Traian Ceuca first proposed ''Metamastigophorophyllon'' in 1976 as a subgenus within the genus ''Mastigophorophyllon'' in the family Mastigophorophyllidae. Ceuca proposed this Monotypic taxon, monotypic subgenus to contain the species ''Mastigophorophyllon giljarovi'', which was described by the Czech zoologist Jaroslav Lang in 1959 based on Type (biology), type material found near Krasnaya Polyana, Sochi, ...
