No detectable methane production was found in slugs, earthworms, potworms oribatid mites, woodlices, springtails, centipedes, ants and soil diptera larvae. However, significant methane production was found in several temperate millipedes including some species from the order Julida (Leptoiulus trilobatus, Megaphyllum projectum, Megaphyllum unilineatum, Unciger transsilvanicus, Unciger foetidus, Leptoiulus proximus, Julus scandinavius). On the other hand, methane production was not confirmed in Cylindroiulus boleti which belongs to the same family. Members of the other orders (Glomerida and Polydesmida) did not release methane with the exception of one questionable recorded release in Polydesmus complanatus (Polydesmida, Polydesmidae).
