I don't have a good camera yet, but I've got a few I can contribute.

Dendrostreptus macracanthus vs Malus domestica


This is the best photo I've ever taken. D. macracanthus is one of the most photogenic millipedes.


Orthoporus ornatus (+ photobomber)

Those are some good photos considering lack of good camera, The second picture is amazing! looks like a weird cinnamon bin. I love the contrast on the legs to the black sheen of the body!


Keep them coming!

Using a tarantula cage for now, but going to find a better one soon. This is about 3 inches too small and possibly not enough ventilation for this species. Ended up taking out the bigger piece of cork bark.

And a small millipede in the Salamander terrarium :)

All of my pedes and millis were collected from our property hence the mites on some of them. The little tiny ones in the Salamander terrarium are there as a clean up crew, but I wouldn't doubt if the salamanders eat them, hehe.

Atopetholus californicus, a species of desert millipede which is found from coastal regions to far inland.


Scolopendra polymorpha pale desert morph, without any banding or strong colors.

Still trying to get pictures of my new acquisition, don't get you hopes up though lol. Also tried getting more pictures of scold but he has been equally uncooperative!

I didn't realize Trigoniulus corallinus could have such vivid colors!

Nicinico, are you keeping your millipedes on straight cocofiber substrate? They really need to have leaves and wood in the sub too.

Yes they really need leaves and wood, I usually give them rotten wood and ferns.

Hiltonius pulchrus (literally 'handsome millipede')

Somewhat similar looking to Narceus, but much larger and more massive. Very heavily built, specimens can exceed ten centimeters in length, and often grow fatter that 20mm in width!

These are found in riparian zones in southern california, and eat rotting Oak, sycamore, and fungi. They seem to enjoy exploring one's hand.
