Harpaphe haydeniana

Comments (1)

Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Xystodesmidae, Xystodesmini, looks like being Harpaphe haydeniana. I thought it was an easier one, but I had to check through dozens of families and subfamilies. So I think I got the right one, but please, verify! All look similar and quite a complex thing... http://bugguide.net/node/view/310202/bgpage http://bugguide.net/node/view/172734/bgpage http://bugguide.net/node/view/15006/bgpage Xystodesmidae: http://bugguide.net/node/view/60547/bgpage?from=0 http://www.whereartmeetstheheart.com/dghmyriapoda.shtml#genusHarpaphe Interesting link: http://www.cals.uidaho.edu/edcomm/pdf/CIS/CIS1170.pdf http://www.americansouthwest.net/oregon/cape-sebastian/yellow-spotted-millipede_l.html
