Symphyla are small, cryptic myriapods without eyes and without pigment. [4] The body is soft and generally 2 to 10 millimetres (0.08 to 0.4 in) long, divided into two body regions: head and trunk. [4] An exceptional size is reached in Hanseniella magna, which attains lengths of 12-13 mm (0.5 in). [11]
Symphylans, or garden centipedes, are closely related to centipedes and millipedes. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] They are 3 to 6 cm long, and have 6 to 12 pairs of legs, depending on their life stage. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] [ 31 ] Their eggs, which are white and spherical and covered with small hexagonal ridges, are laid in batches of 4 to 25 at a time, and usually ...
Mandibulates include the crustaceans, myriapods (centipedes and millipedes), and all true insects. The name "Mandibulata" refers to the mandibles , a modified pair of limbs used in food processing, the presence of which are characteristic of most members of the group.

Young centipedes have four pairs of legs when they are hatched. They gain a new pair with the first molting , and two pairs with each of their five subsequent moltings. Adults with 15 pairs of legs retain that number through three more molting stages (sequence 4-5-7-9-11-13-15-15-15-15 pairs).

The stalked eyes - like a crab's - are striking because no living members of the group of arthropods that includes millipedes and centipedes - called myriapods - have this kind of eye.
Pauropoda is a class of small, pale, millipede-like arthropods in the subphylum Myriapoda. More than 900 species in twelve families [2] [3] [4] are found worldwide, living in soil and leaf mold. Pauropods look like centipedes or millipedes and may be a sister group of the latter, [5] but a close relationship with Symphyla has also been posited.
