Animals with Two Pairs of Limbs: The Rare Biramous Species

Biramous is a term used in zoology to describe an animal that has two pairs of limbs. It is derived from the Greek words "birs" meaning "two" and "amos" meaning "limbs". Biramous animals are rare, and most species have only one pair of limbs. However, some species such as the millipede and certain types of crustaceans have evolved to have two pairs of limbs. This can provide them with greater mobility and dexterity, allowing them to move more efficiently and perform a variety of tasks.
