North American Millipede

Narceus americanus

Description:

Reddish brown, hard shell segments with red bands in between the segments. His legs and antennae were red too. I think he had more than a pair of legs per segment but don't quote me. 3-4 inches or so.

Habitat:

He made a slow trek from the ambulance bay into the base. I found him at night, he slinking towards the bathroom.

Notes:

I put him back outside!
