Metamastigophorophyllon is a genus of millipedes in the family Anthroleucosomatidae.[1] This genus includes millipedes found in Azerbaijan, Iran, Russia, and Georgia. All five species in this genus have 31 segments in adults (counting the collum as the first segment and the telson as the last).[2] This genus is notable for including the only species in the order Chordeumatida with 31 segments rather than the 30 segments usually observed in adults in this order.[3][4]
