Trigoniulus corallinus? - Orthoporus

Trigoniulus corallinus? - Orthoporus
Big Bend Ranch State Park, Panther Creek ca. 2.5 km north of Rio Grande, Presidio County, Texas, USA
May 6, 2019
Size: ca. 85 mm
Found along a dry desert creek. Rain during the previous night brought out a lot of large millipedes that day. Some were dark brown but this one was conspicuously reddish. I believe it is a Rusty Millipede. If this is correct it would be the first record from western Texas.
