EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcolored copperplate engraving showcases the Great Julus Millipede, Julus maximus, a giant species native to America. The intricately detailed illustration, taken from George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's "The Naturalist's Miscellany" published in 1800, captures the millipede's unique appearance with remarkable accuracy. Millipedes are myriapods, meaning they have many legs, with the Great Julus Millipede boasting an impressive number of up to 420 legs. Their elongated, cylindrical bodies are segmented, with each segment bearing two legs. The Great Julus Millipede is typically dark brown or black in color, and its legs are covered in tiny hairs. The millipede's habitat includes forests, leaf litter, and damp environments. They are detritivores, feeding primarily on decaying organic matter. Despite their appearance, they are harmless to humans and play a crucial role in decomposition and nutrient cycling in their ecosystems. This historical engraving not only serves as a testament to the natural world's beauty but also highlights the importance of meticulous documentation and observation in natural history. George Shaw and Frederick Nodder's collaborative work, "The Naturalist's Miscellany," was a significant contribution to the field of natural history, providing a detailed record of various plant and animal species. The Great Julus Millipede remains an intriguing and fascinating creature, inspiring curiosity and wonder in generations of naturalists and nature enthusiasts alike.
