The complete mitochondrial genome of the millipede Epanerchodus koreanus Verhoeff, 1937 collected in limestone cave of Korea (Polydesmidae: Polydesmida) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
We have determined the second mitochondrial genome of Epanerchodus koreanus Verhoeff, 1937 collected in limestone cave of Korea. The circular mitochondrial genome of E. koreanus is 15,581 bp long.

No Tömösváry organ in flat backed millipedes (Diplopoda, Polydesmida) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2020
The Tömösváry organ is a sensory structure of the head in myriapods and some other terrestrial arthropods. Due to its variable shape, size, and position in millipedes (Diplopoda) the Tömösváry organ is commonly used as diagnostic character in taxonomic ...

The Myriapoda of Halimun-Salak National Park (Java, Indonesia): overview and faunal composition [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal, 2019
The myriapod fauna of the mega-diverse country of Indonesia is so far insufficiently known, with no species lists or determination keys. In order to obtain an overview of the faunal composition of the Myriapoda in an Indonesian forest system, the fauna ...

Comparative water relations of some tropical millipedes [PDF]

open access: yesKragujevac 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).

Complete mitochondrial genomes of two flat-backed millipedes by next-generation sequencing (Diplopoda, Polydesmida)

open access: yesZooKeys, 2016
A lack of mitochondrial genome data from myriapods is hampering progress across genetic, systematic, phylogenetic and evolutionary studies. Here, the complete mitochondrial genomes of two millipedes, Asiomorpha coarctata Saussure, 1860 (Diplopoda ...

Redescripción y nueva combinación de Euryurus flavocarinatus Daday, 1889, y nuevo nombre para el homónimo Euryurus flavocarinatus Silvestri, 1899 (Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Aphelidesmidae)

open access: yesGraellsia, 2021
El milpiés mexicano Euryurus flavocarinatus Daday, 1889, ha permanecido como incertae sedis por más de un siglo. El examen del holotipo demuestra que la especie pertenece al género Amplinus dentro de la amplia familia Aphelidesmidae, orden Polydesmida ...

Cave Diplopoda of southern China with reference to millipede diversity in Southeast Asia

open access: yesZooKeys, 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.

Sexual size and shape dimorphism in Brachydesmus troglobius Daday, 1889 (Diplopoda, Polydesmida) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys, 2020
Until now, morphological trait variation has been investigated in several millipede species using geometric morphometrics. The present study is the first attempt to explore sexual shape and size dimorphism (SShD and SSD) of morphological structures in ...

Additional moults into ‘elongatus’ males in laboratory-reared Polydesmus angustus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Polydesmidae) – implications for taxonomy

open access: yesZooKeys, 2011
The number of stadia during post-embryonic development is supposed to be fixed in most species of the millipede order Polydesmida. For the first time since 1928, additional moults were observed in two males of Polydesmus angustus Latzel, 1884 reared in ...
