I had just gotten home and was taking pics of the bristle millipedes that come out at night to browse the lichen on the stonework, when a neighbour, a middle-aged lady I sort of recognized but had never really spoken to, passed by and asked what I was doing, if I was making a movie or whatever. I explained I was looking at bugs and showed her the bristle millipedes. She excitedly said she liked bugs as well, cicadas and beetles and butterflies and such, and we mutually enthused for a few minutes. I guess talking to neighbours is sometimes worth it.

Bristle millipedes (Polyxenidae) tootling around feeding on crustose lichen. For scale, those are honey locust (_Gleditsia triacanthos_) leaves.

The rain has been a boon for the bristle millipedes (Polyxenidae) on the stone slabs of the walkway walls.
(Bonus oribatid mite.)

it's cool and cloudy enough that a few bristle millipedes are out during the day

Video of tiny tiny baby bristle millipede!

Carpet beetle larvae, which they might be confused with: https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/120113-Anthrenus-verbasci/browse_photos?term_id=1&term_value_id=6#bugstodon #myriapods #millipedes #Myriapoda #Diplopoda #Polyxenida #Polyxenidae

Indulged in a late night photoshoot with the bristle millipedes (Polyxenida, probably genus _Polyxenus_) that come out to browse on the stone walls around the garden. Saw the absolute tiniest bristlepede ever!
For far better close-up pictures, see e.g. BugGuide: https://bugguide.net/node/view/19106/bgimage

A millipede with long legs, Opisthodolichopus scandens, spotted at the Sime Track in the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, Singapore on 8 Feb 2025. An endemic species (only recorded in Singapore), this one has a few mites attached near its head.

Scary finding today in my garden:
The body of a dead slow worm (Anguis veronensis) was still "beating", but I found out it was infested by small millipedes (Blaniulus guttulatus) and maggots 😅Well, this is the circle of life, recycle and get recycled ♻️

Here's a creepy critter photo dump. These critters were found by the back porch, except the beetle, which was on our raspberry vines.
1)Yellow-spotted Millipede (Harpaphe haydeniana)
2) Beetle (Helops laetus)
3) Western Carpet moth (Melanolophia imitata)
4) Crane fly (Genus Tricyphona)

Happy to have taken a long journey via #NightTrain to the #NorthSea for a myriapoda workshop.
Here we learn how to properly identify #Diplopoda #Chilipoda and #Collembola.
I took with me my #alpine species to identify 🤓

Today I learned about 'snout' millipedes (Siphonophorida), with fuzzy bodies and heads elongated into long beaks!
Go home, New Zealand, you're drunk.

in other news, found bristly millipedes (Polyxenida) and snout mites (Bdellidae) on my building's garden wall and was, unfortunately, very weird about it just as neighbours were coming home

The final pic relating to this slime mold scene is of a bristly millipede (Polyxenus lagurus, I think), a group I had never heard of before. They have detachable rear bristles that apparently function like grappling hooks and can be deployed against ants and spiders. Details of that in linked paper if you need more. #millipedes #Diplopoda #Polyxenidae #arthropods #nature #biology
