N2 - A unique pattern of missing defence glands on certain body rings is described for two species of themillipede family Mongoliulidae, order Julida: Ussuriiulus pilifer Golovatch, 1980, and Koiulus interruptusEnghoff et al., 2017. Based on the patterns of missing glands observed in recently collected samples of thetwo species, numbers of podous and apodous body rings in successive stadia of the postembryonicdevelopment can be inferred for each individual millipede, which in turn allows the reconstruction ofpathways of anamorphosis in these species. The inferred numbers of body rings in developmental stadiaare compared with actual numbers observed on additional samples, including the type series, of U. pilifer.The pattern of missing glands in the two mongoliulid species is compared with the pattern of missingglands typical of the entire millipede order Polydesmida.
