Life cycle of Poratia salvator (Diplopoda: Polydesmida: Pyrgodesmidae)
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2009 Even though millipedes display high plasticity in their reproductive strategies, they are poorly studied in the tropical region. The present study describes the biological cycle and reports the parthenogenetic reproduction of Poratia salvator Golovatch &

Ophyiulus in Victoria: results of millipede surveys from south-eastern Australia [PDF]
, 2015 The composition and ecology of the millipede fauna of Victoria remain poorly understood. We collected millipedes as part of a series of ecological arthropod surveys across south-eastern Australia, focusing mainly on Victoria.

Nature, 1889 IT may interest “D. W. T.” (NATURE, December 5, p. 104) to know that Geophilus maritimus is found under stones and sea-weeds on the shore at or near Plymouth, and recorded in my “Fauna of Devon,” Section “Myriopoda,” &c., 1874, published in the Transactions of the Devonshire Association for the Advancement of Literature, Science, and Art, 1874.

Comparative water relations of some tropical millipedes [PDF]
Kragujevac Journal of Science, 2014 Water content, percentage of total body water lost as a function of time, and cuticular permeability are determined for 10 species of millipedes representing three orders (Polydesmida, Spirobolida and Spirostreptida).

A new genus of the millipede tribe Brachyiulini (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae) from the Aegean region [PDF]
, 2013 A new genus of the julid tribe Brachyiulini, Enghophyllum gen. nov., is described, comprising two species from Greece. The type-species, E. naxium (Verhoeff, 1901) comb. nov. (ex Megaphyllum Verhoeff, 1894), appears to be rather widespread in the Aegean:

Sex ratios, mating frequencies and relative abundance of sympatric millipedes in the genus Chersastus (Diplopoda: Pachybolidae) [PDF]
Arthropods, 2014 Three hypotheses exist for explaining climbing behavior in millipedes: 1) waterlogging, 2) detritus limiting, and 3) mate avoidance. Data of sex ratios, mating frequency and relative abundance are provided to suggest an alternative explanation for the ...
