Millipede
Millipedes are a group of arthropods that are characterised by having two pairs of jointed legs on most body segments; they are known scientifically as the class Diplopoda, the name derived from this feature. Each double-legged segment is a result of two single segments fused together. Most millipedes have very elongated cylindrical or flattened bodies with more than 20 segments, while pill millipedes are shorter and can roll into a tight ball. Although the name "millipede" derives from the Latin for "thousand feet", no species was known to have 1,000 or more until the discovery of '' Eumillipes persephone'', which can have over 1,300 legs. There are approximately 12,000 named species classified into 16 orders and around 140 families, making Diplopoda the largest class of myriapods, an arthropod group which also includes centipedes and other multi-legged creatures. Most millipedes are slow-moving detritivores, eating decaying leaves and other dead plant matter. Some eat fu ...

Spirobolida
Spirobolida is an Order (biology), order of "round-backed" millipedes containing approximately 500 species in 12 family (biology), families. Its members are distinguished by the presence of a "pronounced Suture (anatomy), suture that runs "vertically down the front of the head". Most of the species live in the tropics, and many are brightly coloured. Mature males have two pairs of modified legs, the gonopods, consisting of the 8th and 9th leg pair: the posterior gonopods are used in sperm-transfer while the anterior gonopods are fused into a single plate-like structure. The families are divided into two suborders: Suborder Spirobolidea *Allopocockiidae *Atopetholidae *Floridobolidae *Hoffmanobolidae *Messicobolidae *Pseudospirobolellidae *Rhinocricidae *Spirobolellidae *Spirobolidae *Typhlobolellidae Suborder Trigoniulidea *Pachybolidae *Trigoniulidae Select species *''Narceus americanus'', a commonly seen species in eastern North America *''Crurifarcimen, Crurifarcimen vagan ...
