Millipedes "Thousand Feet Creature"

in blurtimals •  3 years ago 

Hello again everyone! I am coming up with another fascinating creature that still exists around us. It's a millipede that I was accidentally noticed crawling slowly on the wet twig where some mushrooms grow. While being there, I took a little time to capture this invertebrates species. Here we call " Kaki Seribu" literally translated as " a thousand feet," refers to the many feet they have. Millipedes are included in the family of lobster, shrimp, and crayfish.

Millipedes are cylindrical or slightly flattened invertebrates. It has round-bodied pests have two sets of legs on each body segment, curling up into a "C" shape, as you can see in the picture, and does not move when we touch. The body is long and cylindrical.

Millipedes are a group of arthropods that are characterized 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. source
