	Millipede - LoveToKnow 1911
		To the external margin of the ventral plate or sternum is articulated a pair of legs and between the leg and the pleural plate is situated the spiracle of the tracheal system.
		The most important glands in the Diplopoda are the repugnatorial or stink-glands, which, except in the Oniscomorpha, Limacomorpha and Ascospermophora, open by pores upon the sides of more or fewer of the segments.
		On each side of the head there is an eye-like spot which may conceivably represent a degenerate eye, although the external cuticle shows no corneal thickening nor the epidermis retinular specialization, and optic nerves are absent from the brain.

	Centipede - LoveToKnow 1911
		The resemblance between the Chilopoda and the Diplopoda is principally superficial and due to the elongation and vermiform shape of the body, which in both is composed of a number of similar or subsimilar somites not differentiated as are those of Insecta, existing Arachnida and most Crustacea, into series or "tagmata" of varying function.
		Until 1893 no one doubted the correctness of the assumption that the Chilopoda and Diplopoda were orders of a class Myriapoda of the same systematic status as the Arachnida or Hexapoda.
		The exoskeletal elements of a typical somite consist of a dorsal plate or tergum, a ventral plate or sternum, a lateral or pleural membrane, often strengthened with chitinous sclerites, and a pair of appendages.

		MORPHOLOGY AND TAXONOMY OF PALEOZOIC MILLIPEDES (DIPLOPODA: CHILOGNATHA: ARCHIPOLYPODA) FROM SCOTLAND
		Diplopoda comprise 14 orders and are diagnosed on the most basic level by the possession of a trunk composed of an apodous collum segment followed by diplosegments, bar the first three segments (the "thorax") which are haplosegments.
		Eileticus was demonstrated to be synonymous with the syncarid crustacean Acanthotelson (Schram, 1984), though debate continues as to whether the holotype of E. anthracinus, described by Scudder (1882), actually represents a centipede (Hannibal, 2001).

		The Diplopoda or millipedes, comprise about 10,000 known species, mostly from the warmer parts of the world.
		Decaying organic matter and fungus mycelia, constitute most of the diet, but some Diplopoda may attack living plants, particularly their roots.
		The sequence of taxa is based on Hoffman's classification of the Diplopoda from 1980 [1979] but the sequence of the orders follows Enghoff (1984: Phylogeny of millipedes - a cladistic analysis.

	Millipede
		Millipedes (Class Diplopoda) are wormlike arthropods with cylindrical bodies that have two pairs of legs for each one of their 20 to 100 or more body segments.
		These animals are herbivorous, slow and nonvenomous unlike the somewhat similar and related centipedes.
		This page is about the creature known as the millipede.

		On each segment (excluding the head) there are two pairs of legs and two pairs spiracles for breathing.
		The term Diplopoda - "double legs" - refers to the fact that each body segment bears two pairs of legs.
		Millipede segments are formed in early development by fusion of two adjacent embryonic segments (apart from the first four trunk segments, which remain single).
