Yumbo, Colombia

Is this an immature Flat Back milipede?

It is indeed a flat-back millipede (order Polydesmida) - it might have molted recently. As there are species in at least three families in this order in Colombia that can have an appearance similar to your specimen, I hesitate to attempt a more specific identification.

Thank you Flap.
