The count of body segments and legs varies within phylum arthropoda because of its diversity, which reflects many different survival strategies; some arthropods like arachnids and some crustaceans have a few as two segments (tagmata) which may appear to be a fusion of other exoskeletal sections. some like millipedes usually have between 18 and 200 segments but can have over 300 segments, one rare species with as many as 750 legs. Hexapoda (including the insects) have as few as three pairs of legs.
