Paris, Friday evening, 9:30 pm. Hundreds of skaters are hanging out at the bottom of the Montparnasse tower, waiting for the start of the Friday Roller Tour. A few minutes later, they will be up to 20,000 at the starting point. Together, for about three hours and over about thirty kilometres, they will glide up and down the streets of Paris on roller ...

Nature, 1973
MOST zoologists would consider a jumping Diplopod to be a highly unlikely animal. Whilst one of us (J. G. B.) was in Sierra Leone recently, however, he collected some millipedes which can perform a succession of four or five short hops. The millipedes belong to the sub-order Stemmiuloidea.

Giant millipede ‘burns’ and the eye
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1997A retrospective review of 8 cases of millipede 'burns' (caused by Polyconoceras sp. [= Salpidobolus sp.]) of the eye and periorbital tissues seen in a specialist ophthalmology unit over 6 years at Madang General Hospital, Papua New Guinea, was conducted. Such cases comprised 0.06% of the 14,000 patients seen in the same period.

Abstract Millipedes are common components of the leaf-litter fauna of most terrestrial environments. The Biology of Millipedes is the first single-volume review of this important group and covers their ecology, behaviour, physiology, and evolution. This book is essential reading for terrestrial ecologists, zoologists, and students taking

A checklist of the millipedes (Diplopoda) of Cambodia
Zootaxa, 2015At the present, the millipede fauna of Cambodia comprises only 19 species from 15 genera, 12 families and 8 orders. These counts certainly represent but a minor fraction of the country’s real diversity of Diplopoda even at the ordinal level, let alone at lower ones. Based on the available information from the adjacent parts of China, Thailand, Myanmar,

Millipedes of Cyprus (Myriapoda: Diplopoda)
Zootaxa, 2014The paper presents an annotated catalogue of the millipedes (Diplopoda) of Cyprus, based on literature scrutiny and on hitherto unpublished material. A total of 21 species belonging to 14 genera, 9 families and 7 orders are recorded from the island. Three species are regarded as new to science, but are not formally described, and the status of another ...

A checklist of the millipedes (Diplopoda) of Laos
Zootaxa, 2014At the present, the millipede fauna of Laos comprises only 34 species from 20 genera, 13 families and 7 orders. These counts certainly represent but a minor fraction of the country’s real diversity of Diplopoda even at the ordinal level, let alone at lower ones.
