Julida
Julida is an order of millipedes. Members are mostly small and cylindrical, typically ranging from in length. Eyes may be present or absent, and in mature males of many species, the first pair of legs is modified into hook-like structures. Additionally, both pairs of legs on the 7th body segment of males are modified into gonopods. Distribution Julida contains predominantly temperate species ranging from North America to Panama, Europe, Asia north of the Himalayas, Asir region, Saudi Arabia, and Southeast Asia. Classification The order Julida contains approximately 750 species, divided into the following superfamilies and families: ;Blaniuloidea C. L. Koch, 1847 *Blaniulidae C. L. Koch, 1847 * Galliobatidae Brolemann, 1921 * Okeanobatidae Verhoeff, 1942 *Zosteractinidae Loomis, 1943 ;Juloidea Leach, 1814 *Julidae Leach, 1814 *Rhopaloiulidae Attems, 1926 *Trichoblaniulidae Verhoeff, 1911 *Trichonemasomatidae Enghoff, 1991 ;Nemasomatoidea Bollman, 1893 *Chelojulidae Enghoff, 199 ...

Parajulidae
Parajulidae is a family of millipedes in the order Julida, occurring predominantly in North America but also in Central America and East Asia. Parajulids are found from Alaska to as far south as Guatemala. Male Parajulids have a greatly enlarged first pair of legs, and externally exposed gonopods, in contrast to the largely Eurasian family Julidae Julidae is a family of millipedes in the order Julida, containing more than 600 species in around 20 genera. Its members are largely confined to the Western Palaearctic, with only a few species extending into the Oriental and Afrotropical realms ... which have a small, hook-shaped first pair of legs, and gonopods concealed internally.Cook, O.

Millipede
Millipedes are a group of arthropods that are characterised by having two pairs of jointed legs on most body segments; they are known scientifically as the class Diplopoda, the name derived from this feature. Each double-legged segment is a result of two single segments fused together. Most millipedes have very elongated cylindrical or flattened bodies with more than 20 segments, while pill millipedes are shorter and can roll into a tight ball. Although the name "millipede" derives from the Latin for "thousand feet", no species was known to have 1,000 or more until the discovery of ''Eumillipes persephone'', which can have over 1,300 legs. There are approximately 12,000 named species classified into 16 orders and around 140 families, making Diplopoda the largest class of myriapods, an arthropod group which also includes centipedes and other multi-legged creatures. Most millipedes are slow-moving detritivores, eating decaying leaves and other dead plant matter. Some eat fungi or ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Aprosphylosomatidae
''Aprosphylosoma darceneae'' is a species of cylindrical julidan millipede found only in the U.S. state of Oregon and comprising the sole species of the family Aprosphylosomatidae. It is known from only a single known specimen collected from Oregon Caves National Monument in 1956 that measures approximately long and 1 mm wide, possessing 59 body segments. The first pair of legs are extremely reduced into non-jointed, peg-like structures. The body color is yellowish brown with darker brown mottling on the dorsal surface, and the legs are white. ''Aprosphylosoma'' was originally classified as a new distinct subfamily ("Aprosphylosomatinae") of the family Nemasomatidae. Subsequent cladistic analysis placed ''Aprosphylosoma'' into the family Paeromopodidae Paeromopodidae is a family of large cylindrical millipedes of the order Julida native to the western United States of America.

Paeromopodidae
Paeromopodidae is a family of large cylindrical millipedes of the order Julida native to the western United States of America. The family contains two genera and ten species and includes the longest millipedes in North America, with individuals reaching up to long. Description Paeromopodids possess 60 to 80 body segments and range from long and 2 to 8 mm wide as adults. Paeromopodids have distinct parallel grooves called ''striae'' on their body rings that give a somewhat roughened texture and distinguishes them from other cylindrical western millipedes. Individuals may be rather uniformly blue gray, or colored in alternating bands of light and dark brown, or may possess a dorsal lengthwise stripe of yellow or light brown. Distribution Paeromopodids are endemic to the United States and occur in two distinct areas: the first is a large Pacific coast range extending from Washington state to the southern Sierra Nevada and Death Valley region of California and east to the Warn ...
