Definition of Diplopoda in English: Diplopodaplural nounˌdɪpləˈpəʊdədipləˈpōdə Zoology A class of myriapod arthropods that comprises the millipedes. 〔动〕倍足纲 Example sentencesExamples - This arthropod subphylum includes the Chilopoda, the Diplopoda, the Pauropoda, and the Symphyla.
- Scudder considered Archipolypoda to represent the ‘prototypes’ of Diplopoda and possibly also Pauropoda.
- Less frequently they will also eat Diplopoda, Araneae, snails, crabs, tree frogs, lizards and fish (Actinopterygii).
- The millipedes described herein, aside from being representatives of a group that has an extremely limited fossil record outside of a few key Upper Carboniferous Lagerstatten, make an important contribution to the study of Diplopoda.
- The goal was to understand better pleurojulid trunk-ring architecture and to document character states for use in formulating hypotheses about the phylogenetic position of pleurojulids within Diplopoda.
Derivativesnounˈdɪpləpɒd Zoology Several of the genera included in Archipolypoda by Hoffman have been rejected as diplopods. Example sentencesExamples - Major arthropod lines have long been recognized (insects, crustaceans, chelicerates, diplopods, chilopods, etc.), but the phylogenetic relationships among these groups remain controversial.
- The distribution of fossil oniscomorphs is not surprising as modern diplopods are common in tropical environments characterized by high rainfall.
- Aside from the modified legs on trunk segment eight and the paramedian sternal pores, the rest of the characters used to diagnose Archipolypoda above also occur in other diplopod taxa and are only diagnostic in combination.
OriginModern Latin (plural), from Greek diploos 'double' + pous, pod- 'foot'.
