The Millipede field of the Invertebrates section should list stations where a millipede is found.
Millipedes are classified as arthropods, not insects. Millipedes can be identified by their long bodies, with each segment having two pairs of legs (except for the first few behind the head). The total number of legs varies, but there are often many more than 20. They move slowly and can vary in size, color and shape. Millipedes should not be confused with centipedes which have only one pair of legs per body segment.
