Biology:Onychoglomeris

From HandWiki

Onychoglomeris is a genus of pill millipede found in North Italy and the Balkans.[1] In 1971, Onychoglomeris tyrolensis, then Glomeris tyrolensis, was designated as the genus's type species.[2]

Description

Onychoglomeris range in coloration from whitish to brownish and lack a defined color pattern.[1] The first and second male telopods lack trichosteles. The second telopod segment bears a large lobe-like projection, forming a pincer-like chela with segments three and four. Leg pair 17 consists of six podomeres with spiracles. The genus may contain the largest species of the order, which is 20-25 mm in length.
