Decapauropus is a large genus of pauropods in the family Pauropodidae that includes more than 300 species.[1][2][3] This genus was originally described by Paul Remy in 1931 to contain the newly discovered type species Decapauropus cuenoti.[4][5][6] As the name of this genus suggests, this genus is notable for including females with ten pairs of legs instead of the nine leg pairs usually found in adult pauropods in the order Tetramerocerata.[2][3][6] Before the discovery of D. cuenoti, adult pauropods were thought to have invariably nine pairs of legs.[7]
