Based mainly on published information, the authors provide a review of the postembryonic development of millipedes (Diplopoda).
Category:
The authors studied forty-six species of the genus Dolichoiulus on the Canary Islands.
Category:
The authors collected and studied 1605 isopod individuals (eight species) and 671 diplopod individuals (17 species) in four primeval forests of the Western Carpathians, Central Slovakia, by leaf litter extraction.
Category:
Millipedes are terrestrial uniramian antennate and mandibulate arthropods whose bodies are made up of a chain of numerous segments. The appendages of the first body segment just behing the head (collum) are absent.
Category:
The authors reviewed diplopod natural history and discussed the historical and current literature pertaining to millipede morphology, ecology, chemical defenses, and the paleontological record of the group's ancient history.
Category:
In an extensive study on endangered biotopes in the State of Saxony-Anhalt/Eastern Germany, the authors studied the millipede fauna of 50 dry habitats, belonging to 5 types of biotopes from 1995 to 1998 using pitfall traps.
