Does YOUR millipede fluoresce (or bioluminate)?A year or two ago i had some millipedes (flats, er Polydesmida?) that fluoresced as brightly as scorpions. In fact, when i collected them i initially thought i had a scorpion on the ground till i got close enough to see the shape and not just the light. It was pretty spectacular when there was a couple hundred green glowing millis in my immediate areaI also know there are bioluminescent species. The interesting thing is that both the mills i found and the ones i read about can be found in California, USA. So my question to all yous is this.... Does YOUR millipede fluoresce (or bioluminate)? Post species (with pics, if possible) that do seem to have some luminary talent, please clone threads: http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/showthread.php?t=152951 http://atshq.org/forum/showthread.php?t=22144 http://venomlist.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=24772 http://arachnophiles.myfreeforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4285 http://sfbats.myfreeforum.org/about1123.html http://www.insectgeeks.com/forums/display_topic/id_755/ http://www.arachnofreaks.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5772&PN=1 |
