Summary
Cylindroiulus latestriatus is a detritivore, an important regulator of ecosystem nutrient cycling processes. It's introduction to Gough Island (Tristan Islands, Tristan da Cunha, UK) may cause long-term effects on nutrient cycles by speeding up organic cycling and reducing the production of peat, changing floral and faunal assemblages.
Species Description
Cylindroiulus latestriatus is a millipede: Epiproct short and blunt, not protruding beyond margins of paraprocts; latter with 3 marginal setae apiece; gonopods and paraproct setation as shown by Blower (Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey 1997).
Habitat Description
Cylindroiulus latestriatus a soil and litter dweller (Holdgate 1965), is found in leaf, moss, fern and tree fern litter; found under moist leaves along roadside (Records of the Hawaii Biological Survey, 1997). On Gough Island C. latestriatus was never taken above 1000 ft; uplands the soils are much more compact, more mineral, and shallower than those of loose peats of the fern-bush (Holdgate 1965).
