This millipede is known from Thailand and Myanmar, as well as China, Fiji and Seychelles.
The adults observed alive had black or brownish-black bodies and vivid-pink side extensions.
In the study, it was commonly found in humid places strongly influenced by people, especially plant farms and shaded gardens.
On 8 October 1997, two females were collected under dead banana leaves on Mahé, Seychelles.
In the described adult specimens, antennae stretched over the back reach body ring 5 or 6 in males and ring 4 or 5 in females.
In the described adult males, the femur segments of the fifth and sixth pairs of legs have slight humps underneath near the middle.
An extinction-risk assessment has not been added yet.
