Chordeumatida (from the Greek word for "sausage") is a large order of millipedes containing some 1200 species with a nearly worldwide distribution. Also known as "sausage millipedes,"[1] they possess around 30 body segments behind the head (including the telson) as adults and reach about 25 mm (0.98 in) in length.
Description
Chordeumatidans are relatively short-bodied, with only 26 to 32 body segments (including the telson) behind the head. They range in length from 4–25 mm (0.16–0.98 in). A key feature is the presence of 6 large bristles (setae) on the dorsal surface of each body segment. The first segment (collum) is relatively narrow, giving the appearance of a distinct "neck" in many species. The body tapers towards the rear, and the rearmost tip (telson) contains silk-producing organs (spinnerets). A dorsal groove runs down the length of the body, and some species possess paranota, lateral extensions of the exoskeleton. Paranota are also found in some other millipedes, notably Polydesmida, from which Chordeumatidans can be distinguished by having a dorsal groove. Unlike most other helminthomorph (worm-like) millipedes, chordeumatidans lack ozopores.[2][3]
Most chordeumatidan species have 30 body segments (including the telson) as adults, and adult females in these species have 50 leg pairs.[4][5] In adult males in this order, two leg pairs (pair 8 and pair 9) are modified into gonopods, leaving 48 pair of walking legs in the typical adult male chordeaumatidan.[6][4] Many species in this order, however, deviate from this typical body plan.
Many species in this order deviate from the usual 30 segments: a few species have 26 segments as adults (e.g., Chamaesoma broelemanni), many species have 28 (e.g., Lipseuma josianae[7]), one genus features 29 (Tianella, in which all but two species have 29[8]), one species (Metamastigophorophyllon martensi) features 31, and many species have 32 (e.g., Altajosoma kemerovo[9]).[4] Some species also deviate by featuring sexual dimorphism in segment number, specifically, adult males with two segments fewer than adult females, for example, in the family Buotidae (males with 26, females with 28),[10] in Xystrosoma beatense (males with 28, females with the usual 30),[4] and in the family Peterjohnsiidae (males with the usual 30, females with 32).[11] With these deviations from the usual 30 segments, the number of leg pairs in adults changes, usually with two leg pairs added or subtracted for each segment added to or subtracted from the typical number.[5] For example, in Chamaesoma broelemanni, with only 26 segments (four fewer than the typical number), adult females have only 42 leg pairs, and adult males have only 40 pairs of walking legs (excluding two pairs of gonopods).[12][4] Adult females with 32 segments (two more than the typical number) have 54 leg pairs (e.g., in the family Peterjohnsiidae[11]), which is the maximum number fixed by species in the class Diplopoda.[13]
Many species deviate from the expected number of walking legs, however, because they deviate in terms of sex-linked modifications to their legs. For example, many species involve another leg pair in addition to pairs 8 and 9 in the gonopod complex in adult males. In the family Speophilosomatidae, leg pair 7 in adult males is modified as part of the gonopod complex.[14] In many species, the gonopod complex instead includes leg pair 10 in addition to pairs 8 and 9 (e.g., Branneria carinata,[15] Reginaterreuma monroei,[11] Golovatchia magda, and Hoffmaneuma exiguum[16]). The family Chordeumatidae exhibits the most extensive modifications, including five leg pairs (pairs 7 through 11) in the gonopod complex.[6][4] Some species also deviate from the usual body plan by reducing or eliminating leg pairs in the adult female. In the family Chordeumatidae, for example, adult females feature a legless sternite (the "platosternite") where a third pair of legs would otherwise be.[6][4][5] In other species (e.g., the genus Kashmireuma and the species Vieteuma longi), adult females instead exhibit modifications to their second leg pair, which are reduced to small nubbins.[17]
Distribution
Chordeumatidans have a large distribution, occurring on all continents except Antarctica. They are present in Madagascar but absent from sub-Saharan Africa and, aside from southern Chile, are largely absent from South America. They occur in the tropics of Central America, Southeast Asia, and Oceania, and as far south as Tasmania, New Zealand, and Chiloé Island, Chile.[18] They are abundant in cold, rocky, mountainous areas of Europe and central Asia, and range northward to Scandinavia, Siberia, and in North America up into Canada and southwest Alaska.[18]
Classification
Chordeumatida contains approximately 1200 species,[19][20] classified in four suborders and approximately 50 families, although several families contain only one to five genera.[21]
