    • Pilbara Round-backed Millipede (Biologic DPLO004) Austrostrophus stictopygus Hoffman, 2003

    Fauna Portal species: 7803
    Order: Spirobolida (Round-backed Millipedes)
    Family: Trigoniulidae

    Fauna Portal Image No. 12240

    Diagnosis

    Austrostrophus stictopygus has originally been described from the Burrup Peninsula on the eastern Pilbara coastline. The species has subsequently been reported as widespread in the Pilbara based on morphological identification, specifically the male gonopod shape; however, numerous genetic lineages of the genus represent a number of species that cannot be identified based on genitalic morphology.

    The genotype here considered to belong to A. stictopygus is the only one of which a specimen was sequenced from the type locality of the species.

    Fauna Portal Records

    The map shows all records that have been verified as part of the Fauna Portal project and may not represent the true distribution of a species. Specifically, for described species, check the link to the Atlas of Living Australia on this page for potential wider distributions. Fauna Portal Reference specimens and Linnean types are shown in red. If you identified a specimen that exceeds the distribution of an undescribed species as illustrated here, please contact the Fauna Portal team who can assist with the lodgement of the specimen in a public institution and display on the map.
