Extending Without Extensors: Morphofunctional Insights and Qualitative Experiments on Myriapod Legs
The distal joints of myriapods are hinge joints and therefore cannot be extended by intrinsic muscles. Using confocal laser scanning microscopy, µCT, semi‐thin sections, and experimental approaches, we investigated the morphology and extension mechanisms of myriapod legs.

Soil Contamination Around the Copper Smelter and the Use of Soil Microarthropods as Bioindicators
ABSTRACT Soil contamination from smelter emissions, including heavy metals (HM), rare earth elements (REEs), and sulfur, poses a significant threat to soil ecosystems. In the immediate vicinity of the Głogów Copper Smelter, HM concentrations were several times higher than in more distant forest stands.

Atlas of myriapod biogeography. I. Indigenous ordinal and supra-ordinal distributions in the Diplopoda: Perspectives on taxon origins and ages, and a hypothesis on the origin and early evolution of the class [PDF]
The biogeographic significance of Diplopoda is substantiated by 50 maps documenting indigenous occurrences of the 16 orders, the three Spirostreptida s. l. suborders – Cambalidea, Epinannolenidea, Spirostreptidea – and all higher taxa including Diplopoda
