I also have a millipede spotting, http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/148... I have to leave it as Millipede, everywhere I looked they call it N. americanus, but I spotted it in Costa Rica??!!

Don't worry, I think most of us here are learning something new all the time!

I'll have a look at your other suggestions when I get a chance :)

Also you should try tylobolinae.

Ok. I suggest you look through Spirobolidae also. I am pretty new at this so your best guess in mine.

Hi LunaMoona,

Thanks for the suggestion, it is definitely a millipede, but I don't think it is N. americanus, because I spotted it in Thailand.
