आर्थ्रोपोड्स में कई somites से बना ट्रंक होता है प्रत्येक पैर की एक जोड़ी पैर: सेंटीपीडेस

chilopoda's Usage Examples:

The endopodite may be retained as a small segmented palp at the side of the gnathobase or disappear (mandible of Crustacea, Chilopoda and Hexapods).

The existence of this third prosthomere corresponding to the third prosthomere of the Crustacea is a strong argument for the derivation of the Hexapoda, and with them the Chilopoda, from some offshoot of the Crustacean stem or class.

Chilopoda.

Orders: Chilognatha and Chilopoda.

(From Korschelt and Heider, after Leuckart.) Peripatus, Diplopoda, Hexapoda and Chilopoda.

The Arachnida form a distinct class or line of descent in the grade Euarthropoda, diverging (perhaps in common at the start with the Crustacea) from primitive Euarthropods, which gave rise also to the separate lines of descent known as the classes Diplopoda, Crustacea, Chilopoda and Hexapoda.

On either view it may be believed that the Hexapoda arose with the allied classes from a primitive arthropod stock, while the relationships of the class are with the Crustacea, the Chilopoda and the Diplopoda, rather than with the Arachnida.

It is admitted on all hands that the Hexapoda are akin to the Chilopoda.

It is difficult in the absence of more detailed knowledge as to the eyes of Chilopoda and Diplopoda to give full value to these facts in tracing the affinities of the various classes of Arthropods.

7) agree in having three somites in front of the mouth, and it is probable, though not ascertained, that the Chilopoda (Scolopendra, 'c.) are in the same case.
