Brachycybe lecontii

Brachycybe lecontii is a species of millipede in the family Andrognathidae.

[6] It is fungivorous, feeding on fungi from a large variety of fungal orders.

[6] Brachycybe species are known to form "pinwheel" shaped groups of individuals, where the millipedes form a circle, their heads pointing inwards and their bodies pointing outwards.

[6] B. lecontii shows paternal care of eggs throughout their incubation, which may last 3-4 weeks.

Males will seek out and collect eggs if they have been separated from their clutch.
