I was away in Alabama this past weekend and saw a large number of these millipedes. They did not unfurl for a measurement, but coiled were roughly the diameter of a nickle to a quarter, though smaller individuals were also present. I thought they were a very attractive species and would consider propogating them should I move down there, but I'd love to know what they are first. If it helps: they were found in the Birmingham area in a hardwood forest.
As you can see, they have a chocolate colored body, dark pinkish legs, and a lighter stripe of brown down their back. Any ideas? I tried bug guide but must have been looking in the wrong section.
