Réduises
Réduises are a group of primitive terrestrial arthropods belonging to the class Pauropoda, closely related to millipedes and centipedes. They are small, segmented creatures typically measuring between 1 and 3 millimeters in length, with a cylindrical, soft-bodied appearance. Réduises are often found in moist, decaying organic matter such as leaf litter, soil, and compost, where they play a role in breaking down detritus and recycling nutrients.
These organisms possess a distinct body structure divided into many similar segments, each bearing paired appendages.
Réduises are primarily found in temperate and tropical regions worldwide, with the highest diversity observed in
Fossil evidence suggests that réduises have existed for millions of years, with some of the earliest records
