Abacion magnum is a species of crested millipede in the family Abacionidae. [1] [2] [3] [4] It is found in North America. [1] [5] In captivity Abacion magnum is known to feed on dead insects as well as dead members of its own species. [6] It produces defensive secretions, shown by infrared spectrophotometry and vapor phase chromatography to contain p-Cresol. [7]
