Armoured millipede

Orthomorpha elevata

Description:

This guy was in a woody crack on a tree trunk. It ventured out for a short while, made a quick round, then went back to the shady crack.

Notes:

Possibly a "tractor" millipede.

Hello. This looks like a kind of "tractor" millipede. It has 2-legs per body segment for instance. It's not a centipede. :-)
