1 A detritivore such as the millipede is an herbivore that eats decaying plant material. 2  Millipedes have four legs per body segment; centipedes have two.  Millipedes are slow-moving herbivores. Centipedes are fast-moving carnivores; they're often brightly colored to warn predators of their venom.
Each double-legged segment is a result of two single segments fused together. Most millipedes have very elongated cylindrical or flattened bodies with more than 20 segments, while pill millipedes are shorter and can roll into a ball. Although the name millipede derives from the Latin for thousand feet, no known species has 1,000; the record of 750 legs belongs to Illacme plenipes.
