  1. Hypoponera

    Thyropygus sp

    Another new arrival! This species is a bit of a mystery for me. It was described as "Acladocricus sp (?), shiny black, yellow legs, very spectacular! From Borneo, grows to 30cm, as big as A. gigas." As big as A. gigas? Sweet! I need some of those! Well... don't think it was accurately...

    Ophistreptus guineensis

    Just got these in! Often called the "African Chocolate millipede" due to the coloration. This specimen is more on the reddish side then the others I have. These guys are very active and often times are on the surface during the day. They don't seem to have any problem with being handled. ...

    Telodeinopus aoutii

    I got a batch of these guys about a year ago. Very cool colors. I have the standard green color as well as a tannish color morph. Unfortunately, the tan specimens were well dug in when I decided to take photos. They run 6-7 inches long and are quite active, but they are proving to not be great...

    Spirostreptidae sp8

    This is my new favorite species! Almost as large as the AGB but a lot more colorful. I was sent 2 males and 2 females 2 years ago. Unfortunately, 2 males and 1 female have passed away. I am down to just 1 remaining female. I had seen mating several times, but no eggs to be seen. Hopefully I will...

    Salpidobolus

    This is one of my new species. Actually it is an unidentified species. The genus Salpidobolus originates from Indonesia. These guys are supposed to release a defensive fluid that can cause chemical burns! So far I have handled them several times and nothing bad has happened. I have 10 specimens...

    Doratogonus stephensi

    I was sent 2 males and 2 females of this species. My son calls them "pale legs". A very good species for those who like to handle millipedes! At least 2 specimens were always to be seen on the surface. They are very fast and don't seem to be upset by being handled. They mated quite often. ...

    Chicobolus spinigerus

    This is a native species of the SE US. Unfortunately, this female was on her last few legs when I decided to take pictures. She is only about 3 inches long, not one of the largest I have. I will try to get photos of a more "lively" specimen in a day or 2.

    Archispirostreptus gigas

    This is the female of my pair of AGBs. She is about 9 inches long. The male is about the same length, but a little thicker. The first photo was taken through the glass of the tank. telson

    Mardonius parilis acuticonus

    Another African species, but from the Western side of the continent. These guys max out around 10 or so inches in length. While they look like the more common AGB at first glance, they have a cool 2-tone look. Half of each segment is covered in fine texture that make the black color matt. The...

    Spirostreptidae sp 1

    These are another species I have had for about a year. They are from Eastern Africa. They reach a max of about 6 inches in length. Great orange and green colors, just not visible in my photos. I need Yen to run over here and help me take photos! This species reproduces at about "rabbit...

    Spirostreptidae sp 6

    Here are a few poor photos of 1 of my 5 immature Spirostreptidae species #6. These are from Madagascar. Adults max out at either 7 or 10 inches. Colors are very bright yellow and orange. Too bad my bad photos hide the colors! They normally coil flat. This one decided to be different and...

    Millipede ID

    Can anyone identify this millipede? I have two of them. I had gotten only a single, unidentified specimen from Orin a long while ago, but have found a second in the tank. The larger one is shown. It is about 6 inches long with the smaller specimen being about 4 inches. I think they are in the...
