Juliformia sp. indet.
Referred material. 1 specimen: MALM.306: adult of indeterminate sex, incomplete specimen ( Fig. 3A, B).
Locality. Mexico, Chiapas: Simojovel: La Pimienta site, 17°08ʹ29ʺ N, 092°45ʹ46ʺ W.
Identification. Head partially lost, trunk smooth, body cylindrical and elongated that matches Juliformia , but the specimen is strongly damage by the fossilization process, so no judgment is made as to its specific taxonomic posi- tion.
Remarks. The juliform millipedes are widely distributed in the Mexican territory ( Bueno-Villegas et al. 2004, Shelley 2010, Medrano 2014, Cortés-Ríos and Gárate- Rodríguez 2017), but currently there are no records for Aguascalientes and Tlaxcala in Central Mexico.
