Trichopolydesmidae
Trichopolydesmidae is a family of millipedes belonging to the order Polydesmida.[1] This family includes two genera (Galliocookia and Occitanocookia) notable for featuring sexual dimorphism in segment number: adult females in these genera have the 20 segments (including the telson) usually found in this order, but adult males have only 19.[2]
