Ozopore the Sclerosomatidae secrete short-chain acyclic ketones and alcohols, and the Phalangiidae, naphthoquinones. In millipedes, ozopores are repeated serially on body segments, and usually situated laterally. Exceptions are members of the order Glomerida, which have ozopores located dorsally. Some members of the order Julida have especially prominent ozadenes. Ozopore An ozopore is the opening of a defensive gland present in some arthropods, notably in millipedes of the order Polydesmida and in harvestmen, the eight-legged arachnids also known as "daddy long-legs". The glands themselves are known as ozadenes, also called "scent glands", "repugnatorial glands", "odoriferous glands" or "stink glands" by various authors.
Threatened arthropods Thus extinction of arthropods species threaten to make extinct hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of higher order birds, amphibians, reptiles and mammals. There are several pathways of endangerment for arthropods; however, most of them stem from the pressures of an expanding human population and resulting actions humans take to produce food, housing, transportation and recreation. Probably the greatest hazard to arthropod survival is agriculture, due to the ever increasing demand of the human population to feed its expanding numbers. Agriculture typically results in a monoculture that cannot support the biodiversity nurtured by the predecessor natural environment. Normally arthropods represent
