A new genus of millipede (Diplopoda: Polydesmida: Dalodesmidae) from Tasmania with a pseudo-articulated gonopod telopodite
Year: 2005
Type: article
Abstract: Ginglymodesmus tasmanianus n. gen., n. sp., G. penelopae n. sp. and G. sumac n. sp. are described from northwest Tasmania, Australia. The three species have long, slender gonopod telopodites divided into proximal and distal sections, with the distal section pivoting around a hinge-like structure which appears to differ from the typical joint in an arthropod leg.
