Scientists find 'the first true millipede' with over 1,300 legs in Australia
Scientists find 'the first true millipede' with over 1,300 legs in Australia
Dec 17, 2021 If you thought you had seen a real millipede, think again. The first ever true millipede with over 1,000 legs has been discovered in western Australia. According to a peer-reviewed study published in Scientific Reports, the new record-setting species has 1,306 legs – 556 more than the previous record set by Illacme plenipes found in central California. Millipede translates to 1,000 feet, but no one has actually seen one with more than 750 legs until now. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/w...ia/8937012002/ |
