A species of Sigmoria (Fallor
A species of Sigmoria (Falloria), Falloria being the subgenus and hence in parentheses. Please remember that, in the southern Appalachians in general, it makes a HUGE DIFFERENCE exactly where the milliped is found, as scads of species look exactly like this. Just GSMNP, Sevier Co., TN, isn't nearly enough, as there are dozens just inside this Nat. Pk., so much more locality info. is needed.
