Order 2. ^;iialli».f—Head composed of two segments, one pair of legs on each segment of the body. These are the Centipedes, These creatures differ so greatly from the typi- cal insects that many naturalists regard them as a separate class. In their general form of body, and in their development by increase in the num- ber of their segments, they resemble the worms; but in their internal structures and in the posses- sion of limbs they approach to the insects, of which, on the principles of classification followed in this manual, they must necessarily form the lowest or most degraded group, corresponding to the scolc- cida among the worms. The chilognatha or gally- worms are represented in this country by several species, of which one of the most common is appar- ently iw/«s yt?wu6-^ws. Wood. (Fig. 24:1.) It lives Fif/.
