Hi everyone,
It's been almost exactly two years since I've posted here - and I have some new pics to share - along with a question...
The pics below are of a millipede I found in my back yard. They're very common around here - just outside of Boston, MA. And they're small - only about an inch or so, max. Does anyone know what species this would be?...
Close up, coiled up:

Starting to uncoil:

Size, relative to a quarter:

Showing the black stripe across the face:

I also just got a couple of baby African giant millipedes. Here's a few shots of one of them too
...
Also, on a quarter for size reference (much fatter than our local pedes!):

Another shot, next to the quarter:

And one last shot (hey, why not!):

Hope you enjoy the pics, and please let me know if you know that species name for the pedes I found here!
Thanks,
- Mark
