Trigoniulus corallinus, sometimes called the rusty millipede or common Asian millipede, is a species of millipede widely distributed in the Indo-Malayan region including India, Sri Lanka, China, Taiwan, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and much of Indonesia. It is also reported from Fiji and Tanzania and found in South Asia and the Caribbean as an.introduced species.In some part of India it is feared,people there in summertime sleep on their floor on mat,and this millipede crawl into ear and nose cavity which can be very harmful.today because of modernisation it is unlikely to happen.[1][2]

These millipedes inhabit moist areas, rotten wood and compost.[1] The genome of T. corallinus was sequenced in 2015, the first time this has been done for a millipede.[3]
