Main stages of non-systemic metamorphosis in three millipede species of the order Julida. (A-C) N. kochii; (D-F) B. guttulatus; (G-I) N. varicorne. A, D and G, last stadium with walking legs on ring VII (asterisk); SEM, latero-ventral view. B, E and H, gonopod primordia; SEM, ventral view. C, F and I, gonopods; SEM, ventral view. Yellow, coxal process; Green, anterior gonopod telopodite; Blue, posterior gonopod telopodite. Anterior to the left, scale bars 200 μm.
