The evolution of segmentation of centipede trunk and appendages

The segmentation of centipedes is interpreted in the light of a biphasic model of segmentation (holomeric plus meromeric).The mid!body anomaly (e. g. in the alternating short and long terga) or in the sequence of segments with and without spiracles# is regarded as due to an early patterning of the e...
