Only discovered in Nottinghamshire in November 2021, when found
underneath plant pots in an outside standing area of a Worksop garden
centre. Despite strongly being seuspected as being Cylindroiulus
truncorum on discovery, the identification was not able to be
confirmed until a second specimen (a male) was taken from the same site
in January 2022. A rare Millipede in the UK, there is a Leicestershire
record and it is known from botanical gardens at Kew, Oxford and Glasgow
