A generalized juliform diplopod, lateral aspect, anterior to the left. In this diplopod group sternites, pleurites and tergites are fused into rigid armour rings, which give the trunk its annulated ("segmented") appearance. Only the first tergite, the neck-shield or collum, is free, i.e. not fused to any other component. Note that the first three armour rings bear a single pair of legs, whereas all following rings have two leg-pairs each.
