Unknown Millipedes

Description:

A couple of small dark Myriapods either fighting or mating. They were in this stationary state for a long time and they hardly moved. Body length less than 4cm. Their legs looks like a centipede's but they have 2 pairs of legs per segment (but some segments have no legs).

Habitat:

Forest floor (usually) of Kinabalu Park, Kundasang, Sabah, Malaysia.

Notes:

I didn't see how they started nor ended. I know that some jungle centipedes of Malaysia can reach up to an amazing size but I have never seen one with my own eyes. In Malaysia, scorpions and spiders should not be feared as none are dangerous but centipedes on the other hand, should be handled with care as their bites cause serious injuries. >>>Map accuracy : 500m diameter.
