Influence of Deadwood, Tree-Related Microhabitats, and Forest Structural Features on Saproxylic Arthropod Diversity. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

A checklist of the millipedes of Georgia, Caucasus (Diplopoda) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2018
The diplopod fauna of Georgia, Transcaucasia, is very rich given the country’s relatively small territory, presently comprising 95 species from 42 genera, 12 families, and seven orders. Most of the Diplopoda known from Georgia are subendemics (39 species,

Revealing patterns of endemism in the transatlantic family Chelodesmidae (Polydesmida: Diplopoda). [PDF]

open access: yesCladistics
Abstract With fossil records dating back to the Silurian/Late Ordovician, millipedes stand out as one of the earliest terrestrial animal groups. Their limited vagility and high endemism make them valuable tools for formulating and testing biogeographic hypotheses, including those related to macro‐vicariance events.

Millipede (Diplopoda) distributions: A review

open access: yesSoil Organisms, 2009
In spite of the basic morphological and ecological monotony, integrity and conservatism expressed through only a small number of morphotypes and life forms in Diplopoda, among which the juloid morphotype and the stratobiont life form are dominant, most ...

Opposite changes in the resistance to cold and desiccation, which occur during the development of the millipede Polydesmus angustus (Diplopoda: Polydesmidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2003
Supercooling point (SCP), survival at low temperatures, rate of water loss in dry air at 20°C and survival under desiccating conditions of eggs of Polydesmus angustus (Diplopoda) were determined.

Year-round correlation between mass and copulation duration in forest millipedes [PDF]

open access: yesArthropods, 2020
Correlates of diplopod size include diet, copulation duration, energy expense of copulation, oxygen consumption, precipitation, sex and temperature. Sexual Size Dimorphism (SSD) in the diplopod genus Centrobolus has a positive correlation with body size ...
