Arthropleura (Greek for jointed ribs) [source?/dubious translation] is a genus of extinct millipede arthropods that lived in what is now northeastern North America and Scotland around 345 to 295 million years ago, from the Viséan stage of the lower Carboniferous Period to the Asselian stage of the lower Permian Period.[2] The species of the genus are the largest known land invertebrates of all time, and would have had few, if any, predators [source?].
