Myriapodologist

A myriapodologist was a specialist who studied certain arthropods, with the occupation's name being shared with the type of creature known as myriapod.Spark of the Resistance In 22 BBY,Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious dates the involvement of myriapodologists in the investigation of an assassination attempt on Senator Padmé Amidala to 7955 C.R.C. and gives 7977 C.R.C. as the year that the secret mission to Tatooine took place. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the mission to Tatooine to 0 BBY, the investigation must therefore have taken place in 22 BBY. myriapodologists from the Coruscant Zoo were involved in a Coruscant Security Force (CSF) investigation of an assassination attempt on Galactic Republic Senator Padmé Amidala on the Core WorldsStar Wars Galaxy Map planet Coruscant. Amidala's bodyguard, Jedi Padawan Anakin Skywalker, had bisected with his lightsaber a pair of kouhuns, venomous arthropods from the Wild SpaceStar Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know, Updated and Expanded planet Indoumodo, after they had been stealthily inserted into Amidala's apartment. The myriapodologists subsequently identified the creatures from their remains. The bisected kouhuns were preserved in a canister as evidence, with their venom sacs removed in order to attempt the creation of an antivenom. In 34 ABY, information from the CSF file on the case, which mentioned the myriapodologists' involvement, was published in the book Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, which was authored by New Republic Police Commissioner Exantor Divo.
==Behind the scenes==
Myriapodologists were mentioned in the 2018 reference book Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, authored by Pablo Hidalgo. In the real world, myriapodologists practice myriapodology, or the study of myriapods—a group of arthropods that includes centipedes and millipedes.
