Hi,
Any ideas what species this could be?
I took the photo on 31.1.2014 Kokkola, Finland.
Size 18mm.

Regards Pentti.

Hi Pentti! I tried to identify your millipede using the Encyclopedia of the Swedish Flora and Fauna. I think it is one of two species; Cylindroiulus latestriatus or C. brittanicus. If it was found on a seashore it is almost certainly latestriatus, if found elsewhere it is probably brittanicus. But examination of sexual characters is required if you want to be completely sure.

Hi,

thank you very much for your determinations and comments.
I dug this from an ant hillSmile, a seashore 10km.
Yes, it seems to be Cylindroiulus brittanicus.

Pentti.

I think that brittanicus is the most likely, but I'm not an expert...
