Nevertheless, the research of this habitat lags far behind the study of caves and soil, due to technical and time-consuming demands. Data on Myriapoda in scree habitat from eleven localities in seven different geomorphological units of the Czech and Slovak Republics were processed. -
Millipedes (Diplopoda) from Caves of Portugal
A.S.P.S. Reboleira and H. Enghoff – Millipedes (Diplopoda) from caves of Portugal. Journal of Cave and Karst Studies, v. 76, no. 1, p. 20–25. DOI: 10.4311/2013LSC0113 MILLIPEDES (DIPLOPODA) FROM CAVES OF PORTUGAL ANA SOFIA P.S. REBOLEIRA1 AND HENRIK ENGHOFF2 Abstract: Millipedes play an important role in the decomposition of organic matter in the subterranean environment. Despite the existence of several cave-adapted species of millipedes in adjacent geographic areas, their study has been largely ignored in Portugal. Over the last decade, intense fieldwork in caves of the mainland and the island of Madeira has provided new data about the distribution and diversity of millipedes. A review of millipedes from caves of Portugal is presented, listing fourteen species belonging to eight families, among which six species are considered troglobionts. The distribution of millipedes in caves of Portugal is discussed and compared with the troglobiont biodiversity in the overall Iberian Peninsula and the Macaronesian archipelagos. INTRODUCTION All specimens from mainland Portugal were collected by A.S.P.S.

Biochemical Divergence Between Cavernicolous and Marine
The position of crustaceans within Arthropoda - Evidence from nine molecular loci and morphology GONZALO GIRIBET', STEFAN RICHTER2, GREGORY D. EDGECOMBE3 & WARD C. WHEELER4 Department of Organismic and Evolutionary- Biology, Museum of Comparative Zoology; Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, U.S.A. ' Friedrich-Schiller-UniversitdtJena, Instituifiir Spezielte Zoologie und Evolutionsbiologie, Jena, Germany 3Australian Museum, Sydney, NSW, Australia Division of Invertebrate Zoology, American Museum of Natural History, New York, U.S.A. ABSTRACT The monophyly of Crustacea, relationships of crustaceans to other arthropods, and internal phylogeny of Crustacea are appraised via parsimony analysis in a total evidence frame work. Data include sequences from three nuclear ribosomal genes, four nuclear coding genes, and two mitochondrial genes, together with 352 characters from external morphol ogy, internal anatomy, development, and mitochondrial gene order. Subjecting the com bined data set to 20 different parameter sets for variable gap and transversion costs, crusta ceans group with hexapods in Tetraconata across nearly all explored parameter space, and are members of a monophyletic Mandibulata across much of the parameter space. Crustacea is non-monophyletic at low indel costs, but monophyly is favored at higher indel costs, at which morphology exerts a greater influence. The most stable higher-level crusta cean groupings are Malacostraca, Branchiopoda, Branchiura + Pentastomida, and an ostracod-cirripede group. For combined data, the Thoracopoda and Maxillopoda concepts are unsupported, and Entomostraca is only retrieved under parameter sets of low congruence. Most of the current disagreement over deep divisions in Arthropoda (e.g., Mandibulata versus Paradoxopoda or Cormogonida versus Chelicerata) can be viewed as uncertainty regarding the position of the root in the arthropod cladogram rather than as fundamental topological disagreement as supported in earlier studies (e.g., Schizoramia versus Mandibulata or Atelocerata versus Tetraconata). -

Some Aspects of the Ecology of Millipedes (Diplopoda) Thesis
Some Aspects of the Ecology of Millipedes (Diplopoda) Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Monica A. Farfan, B.S. Graduate Program in Evolution, Ecology, and Organismal Biology The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Hans Klompen, Advisor John W. Wenzel Andrew Michel Copyright by Monica A. Farfan 2010 Abstract The focus of this thesis is the ecology of invasive millipedes (Diplopoda) in the family Julidae. This particular group of millipedes are thought to be introduced into North America from Europe and are now widely found in many urban, anthropogenic habitats in the U.S. Why are these animals such effective colonizers and why do they seem to be mostly present in anthropogenic habitats? In a review of the literature addressing the role of millipedes in nutrient cycling, the interactions of millipedes and communities of fungi and bacteria are discussed. The presence of millipedes stimulates fungal growth while fungal hyphae and bacteria positively effect feeding intensity and nutrient assimilation efficiency in millipedes. Millipedes may also utilize enzymes from these organisms. In a continuation of the study of the ecology of the family Julidae, a comparative study was completed on mites associated with millipedes in the family Julidae in eastern North America and the United Kingdom. The goals of this study were: 1. To establish what mites are present on these millipedes in North America 2. To see if this fauna is the same as in Europe 3. To examine host association patterns looking specifically for host or habitat specificity. -

Brief characterization of the group and main diagnostic characters 1.1. Morphology The members of the order Callipodida are best recognized by their putative apomorphies: a divided hypoproct, divided anal valves, long extrusible tubular vulvae, and, as in all other helminthomorph milli- pede orders, a characteristic conformation of the male gonopods. As in Polydesmida, only the first leg pair of the 7th body ring is transformed into gonopods, which are retracted inside the body. Body rings are open ventrally and are not fused with the sternites, leaving the coxae of the legs free. Legs in the anterior half of the body carry coxal pouches. The small collum does not overlap the head. Callipodida are of uniformly cylindrical external appearance. The number of body rings is only sometimes fixed in species and usually exceeds 40. There are nine antennomeres, as the 2nd antennomere of other Diplopoda is subdivided (= antennomere 2 and 3 in Callipodida). The general struc- ture of the gnathochilarium is shared with the Chordeumatida and Polydesmida. Callipodida are said to be characterised by longitudinal crests, which gives the order the common name “crested millipedes”. Although crest are present in most species, some genera (e.g. Schizopetalum) lack a crest, while some Spirostreptida ( e.g. in Cambalopsidae, ‘Trachystreptini’) and some Julida (e.g. -

We studied the distribution of the kinds on the earth surface, in the gound in depth 0-10 cm and 10-20 cm, for the three collecting stations.
