Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Diplopoda is one of the most diverse terrestrial arthropod groups in Brazil, with the order Spirostreptida Brandt, 1833 standing out for its species richness. Most of the ~180 Brazilian Spirostreptida species occur in the Atlantic Forest, primarily along its coastal region.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 1256-1284, August 2026.This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018 The mitogenome of Sellanucheza jaegeri was 15,623 bp long, revealed the same gene order to that of typical Polydesmida. Both the tRNASer(AGN) and tRNASer(UCN) lacked the DHU arms. No tandem repeat was found in two control regions.

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 715-728, August 2026.Species richness declined along cave microclimatic gradient, while diversity increased with habitat heterogeneity, highlighting distinct roles of abiotic conditions and structural complexity in shaping arthropod communities. Functional traits shifted along the microclimatic gradient, with larger‐bodied and more eye‐regressed arthropods dominating under

Travaux de l'Institut de Speologie Emile RacovitzaA new species of Oniscidea, Trachelipus razzauti, and a new species of Diplopoda, Typhloiulus serborum, are recorded first time for the Romanian fauna. Both species have been “discovered” in the collection of the “Emil Racoviţă” Institute of Speleology.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.Using citizen‐science records, we analysed ecogeographic patterns of colour polymorphism in two closely related centipede species across Japan. While two colour morphs in Scolopendra mutilans are broadly sympatric, they are geographically restricted in S. japonica despite overlapping climatic niches and biotic interactions.

Cave Diplopoda of southern China with reference to millipede diversity in Southeast Asia
ZooKeys, 2015 The diversity of Diplopoda in caves of southern China is remarkably high, often 5–6 species per cave, consisting mostly of local endemics and presumed troglobionts.

On some Oniscidea and Diplopoda from Bucharest, Romania [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2006 This paper presents 14 species of Oniscidea and four species of Diplopoda - among them a species new to science belonging to the genus Bulgardicus Strasser, 1966 - collected exclusively in parks of Bucharest.
