Welcome
A website on many-legged animals
Diplopoda // Chilopoda // Pauropoda // Symphyla // Onychophora
Created in Paris (France) in 1968 during the 1st International Congress of Myriapodology, the
CENTRE INTERNATIONAL DE MYRIAPODOLOGIE (CIM) represents the global
community of myriapodologists. Its mission is to rapidly inform myriapodologists
(and other zoologists and biologists) of works in progress or published
in all the fields of myriapodology (Myriapoda & Onychophora), from the
study of macromolecules to the study of ecosystems and landscape
ecology, as well as systematics and taxonomy.
This website highlights the activities of Centre International de
Myriapodologie / International Society for Myriapodology. It hosts the annual CIM Newsletter, announces
upcoming international congresses, reviews our 18 previous congresses, and offers a list of members,
as well as a reference list of
publications on Myriapoda and much more about the
fascinating "multipedes" Myriapoda and Onychophora.
