Resumen: El orden Scolopendromorpha incluye 700 especies de ciempi\és a nivel mundial. Es el grupo de miri\ápodos m\ás diverso en Colombia con alrededor de 40 especies y seis subespecies. En este trabajo se actualiz\ó el n\úmero de especies de ciempi\és conocidas para el pa\ís a partir de la revisi\ón de literatura especializada, as\í como bases de datos y registros de espec\ímenes en colecciones digitales en l\ínea. Se encontraron nuevos registros de 19 especies y una subespecie. As\í, la riqueza del grupo se increment\ó a cincuenta y cuatro especies y siete subespecies dentro de tres familias, cinco subfamilias, ocho g\éneros y siete subg\éneros. Adem\ás, 30 de los 32 departamentos del territorio colombiano registraron un representante identificado al menos al nivel de g\énero. Antioquia, Boyac\á y Cundinamarca son los departamentos con mayor riqueza de especies.

Scolopendromorph centipedes (Chilopoda: Scolopendromorpha) from Colombia: a richness update

Abstract: The order Scolopendromorpha includes 700 species of centipedes worldwide. It is the most diverse group of myriapods in Colombia with 40 species and six subspecies. In this work, the number of centipede species known in the country was updated from a review of specialized literature, as well as databases and specimen records in online digital collections. New records of 19 species and one subspecies were found. Thus, the richness of the group increased to fifty-four species and seven subspecies within three families, five subfamilies, eight genera, and seven subgenera. In addition, 30 of the 32 departments of the Colombian territory registered a representative identified at least at the gender level. Antioquia, Boyac\á and Cundinamarca are the departments with the highest species richness.

For the last 100 years, Biologia Centrali-Americana has been an important source of information for many groups of Mexican and Central American arthropods and remains a keystone for taxonomic work. However, many included names are now out of date. I provide an updated list of names of Chilopoda as cited in Vol. 14 of Biologia Centrali-Americana to use as a complement to that work. The Chilopoda of Biologia Centrali-Americana included 52 names for 51 species and 1 subspecies. Of those, 18 names (35\%) were described as new in Pocock\´s work. Currently 24 remain as valid names in the same genus, 17 have been transferred to other genera and 11 have been treated as synonyms.

A checklist of Centipedes (Chilopoda) for Cameroon with updated nomenclature of old records and recent additional records from Cameroon\’s fauna is provided. The provisional list reveals nine endemic species (39\%), four new distribution records, and includes four species that were previously omitted, thereby leading to a modest extension of the list from 19 to 23 species. Several unidentified or doubtful species no longer recognized from the African continent are excluded from the list.

Centipedes of Sinaloa, Mexico (Myriapoda: Chilopoda): new species records and expansion of its regional distribution

Abstract: Seven species and one subspecies of centipedes have been recorded in Sinaloa. The study of new specimens, collected from 2016 to 2018, identified 12 centipedes species, eigth of them are new state records. The other four species, previously recorded in the state, were registered in new localities. We present a list with the new state records of Dendrothereua linceci (Wood, 1867), Scolopendra morsitants Linnaeus, 1758, Newportia quadrimeropus (Shelley \& Mercurio, 2005), N. stolli (Pocock, 1896), Pachymerium ferrugineum (Koch, 1835), Mecistocephalus guildingii Newport, 1843, Notiphilides maximiliani (Humbert \& Saussure, 1870) and Orphnaeus brevilabiatus (Newport,1845), and new localities records from Arthrorhabdus pygmaeus (Pocock, 1895), S. polymorpha Wood, 1861, S. viridis Say, 1821 and Rhysida longipes (Newport, 1845). The current checklist of the Sinaloa state centipedes includes 15 species and one subspecies. In Mexico, the state is ranked eigth in centipedes richness.

The lithobiomorph centipede fauna of China is listed here based on literature data. A total of 68 species in 15 genera/subgenera in 2 families, Henicopidae and Lithobiidae, has been recorded from China. Three genera and forty-four species are known only from China, including the monotypic genera Pterygotergum and Hedinobius. The original descriptions of 16 nominal species were based on specimens of single sex only and 13 nominal species of Lithobius have never been allocated to a subgenus. Lithobius (Lithobius) zhui Pei, Ma, Shi, Wu \& Gai, 2011 is moved to subgenus Lithobius (Ezembius). Distribution data for each species is provided here to promote further studies on the Lithobiomorpha fauna of China.

The year 2018 is particularly important in the history of zoological research in Poland. A hundred years ago, Kazimierz Demel published the first work concerning the terrestrial cave fauna of caves in the Ojc\ów area. In this paper we present the extent of research on the terrestrial invertebrate fauna of Polish caves in the last 100 years. All accessible research papers that have been published during this period were analysed. Based on published literature, 593 species of terrestrial invertebrate were recorded in Polish caves. Additionally, detailed list of species of individual taxonomic groups was provided.

The diplopod fauna of Georgia, Transcaucasia, is very rich given the country\’s relatively small territory; it presently comprises 103 species from 44 genera, 12 families, and 7 orders. Most of the Diplopoda known from Georgia (86 species, or 83\%) demonstrate Caucasian distribution patterns, 36 and 46 species, as well as 8 and 9 genera being endemic or subendemic to the country, respectively. A single Holarctic family, Anthroleucosomatidae (order Chordeumatida), contains 44 Caucasian species and 20 genera, of which 27 species and 14 genera are endemic or subendemic to Georgia. Likewise, all species from the orders Polyzoniida, Siphonocryptida, Glomerida and Chordeumatida, as well as most species of Julida and Polydesmida are native, also endemic or subendemic to the Caucasus, but the genera and families they represent are widely distributed at least across the Euro-Mediterranean Realm. Most of the presumed troglobionts in the Caucasus appear to be confined to western Georgia\’s karst caves (14 species, 5 genera). Within Georgia, the fauna of the western part (= Colchis) is particularly rich and diverse, while that of the central and eastern parts of the country grows increasingly depauperate inland following the gradual climatic aridisation from west (Black Sea coast) to east (Armenia and Azerbaijan). The vertical distribution of the Diplopoda in Georgia, as well as the Caucasus generally, shows the bulk of the fauna restricted to forested lowland to mountain biomes or their remnants. Only very few Chordeumatida and Julus species seem to occur solely in the subalpine to alpine environments and thus may provisionally be considered as high-montane elements. Ongoing and future research on the millipedes of the Caucasus, especially in cave and montane environments, will undoubtedly allow for many more novelties and details of the diversity and distribution of Georgia\’s Diplopoda to be revealed or refined.

This work is a first attempt to integrate into one list and quantify all the known species of Hispaniolan arthropods. It includes all the terrestrial and surrounding marine arthropod species (plus those of Tardigrada and Onychophora) known to me to be reported for the island of Hispaniola until the end of 2007, as well as 158 species that are reported here as new records for the Dominican Republic and the island. A total of 8,237 valid species (6,833 extant and 1,404 fossils) are listed, of which the largest component are the insects (5,676 extant and 824 fossil species). Preliminarily, 2,521 arthropod species (36.9\%) are considered to be endemic or unique to Hispaniola. Also 84 species are recognized as introduced. The bibliography complements the taxonomic information and includes over 4,000 titles. Brief annotations are also given on the history of entomology in Hispaniola.

This paper, like its predecessor on the centipeds of the same region, is primarily a report upon the material of the group existing in the collections of the United States National Museum, collections which have been enriched especially by the contributions of Drs. O. F. Cook and W. M. Mann. The collection of the Museum of Comparative Zoology has also been reviewed. In addition to the forms studied in these collections, it has been the intention to include all other species thus far described from Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Salvador, Honduras, British Honduras, and Guatemala.
