Comparative water relations of some tropical millipedes
Water content, percentage of total body water lost as a function of time, and cuticular permeability are determined for 10 species of millipedes representing three orders (Polydesmida, Spirobolida and Spirostreptida). Mean water content per cubic centimeter of body mass ranges from 422 mg for Polyde...
