A representative of the order Lithobiomorpha. Note the 15 pairs of short legs and pedal segments and the "tergite heteronomy,"
or the presence of alternative long and short dorsal segmental sclerites; this is an adaptation to reduce side-to-side undulations,
which hinder fast movement forward.… Rowland Shelley on Bugguide.net
