Juloidea
Julida is an order (biology), order of millipedes. Members are mostly small and cylindrical, typically ranging from in length. Eyes may be present or absent, and in mature males of many species, the first pair of legs is modified into hook-like structures. Additionally, both pairs of legs on the 7th body segment of males are modified into gonopod (millipede), gonopods. Distribution Julida contains predominantly temperate species ranging from North America to Panama, Europe, Asia north of the Himalayas, 'Asir Region, Asir region, Saudi Arabia, and Southeast Asia. Classification The order Julida contains approximately 750 species, divided into the following superfamilies and families: ;Blaniuloidea C. L. Koch, 1847 *Blaniulidae C. L. Koch, 1847 *Galliobatidae Brolemann, 1921 *Okeanobatidae Verhoeff, 1942 *Zosteractinidae Loomis, 1943 ;Juloidea Leach, 1814 *Julidae Leach, 1814 *Rhopaloiulidae Attems, 1926 *Trichoblaniulidae Verhoeff, 1911 *Trichonemasomatidae Enghoff, 1991 ;Nemaso ...

Julidae
Julidae is a family of millipedes in the order Julida, containing more than 600 species in around 20 genera. Its members are largely confined to the Western Palaearctic, with only a few species extending into the Oriental and Afrotropical realms. They are united by a characteristic form of the mouthparts, and are classified in the superfamily Juloidea of the order Julida, alongside the families Trichoblaniulidae, Rhopaloiulidae and Trichonemasomatidae. Genera The family consists of the following genera: Select species Examples of species contained within this family include: * ''Brachyiulus pusillus ''Brachyiulus pusillus'' is a species of millipede in the family Julidae.

Tachypodoiulus Niger
''Tachypodoiulus niger'', known variously as the white-legged snake millipede or the black millipede, is a European species of millipede. It is very similar to other species such as '' Cylindroiulus londinensis'', from which it can be reliably distinguished only by studying the shape of the telson. It occurs in Ireland, Britain, Spain, France, Benelux, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the Czech Republic, and is especially common on chalky and limestone soils. ''T. niger'' has a roughly cylindrical shiny black body, with around 100 pairs of contrasting white legs on its 41–56 body segments. It lives in leaf litter, under bark or in moss, and feeds on encrusting algae, detritus and sometimes fruit such as raspberries. Predators of ''T. niger'' include the centipedes ''Lithobius variegatus'' and ''Lithobius forficatus'' and hedgehogs. ''T. niger'' is most active from one hour after sunset to one hour before sunrise, although in summer it also becomes active in the afternoon. L ...

Paeromopodidae
Paeromopodidae is a family of large cylindrical millipedes of the order Julida native to the western United States of America. The family contains two genera and ten species and includes the longest millipedes in North America, with individuals reaching up to long. Description Paeromopodids possess 60 to 80 body segments and range from long and 2 to 8 mm wide as adults. Paeromopodids have distinct parallel grooves called ''striae'' on their body rings that give a somewhat roughened texture and distinguishes them from other cylindrical western millipedes. Individuals may be rather uniformly blue gray, or colored in alternating bands of light and dark brown, or may possess a dorsal lengthwise stripe of yellow or light brown. Distribution Paeromopodids are endemic to the United States and occur in two distinct areas: the first is a large Pacific coast range extending from Washington state to the southern Sierra Nevada and Death Valley region of California and east to the Warn ...

Aprosphylosomatidae
''Aprosphylosoma darceneae'' is a species of cylindrical julidan millipede found only in the U.S. state of Oregon and comprising the sole species of the family Aprosphylosomatidae. It is known from only a single known specimen collected from Oregon Caves National Monument in 1956 that measures approximately long and 1 mm wide, possessing 59 body segments. The first pair of legs are extremely reduced into non-jointed, peg-like structures. The body color is yellowish brown with darker brown mottling on the dorsal surface, and the legs are white. ''Aprosphylosoma'' was originally classified as a new distinct subfamily ("Aprosphylosomatinae") of the family Nemasomatidae. Subsequent cladistic analysis placed ''Aprosphylosoma'' into the family Paeromopodidae Paeromopodidae is a family of large cylindrical millipedes of the order Julida native to the western United States of America.
