Abstract: This addendum to \“An annotated list of the centipedes (Chilopoda) in The National Collection of Arachnids (Colecci\ón Nacional de Ar\ácnidos, CNAN), Instituto de Biolog\ía, Universidad Nacional Aut\ónoma de M\éxico\” (M\éxico City), is based on new samples deposited in the last three years. It updates the preliminary list of 197 samples determined to genus and/or species. In this paper a total of 132 samples were added: Scutigeromorpha, 27; and Scolopendromorpha, 105.

Recent sampling at Picolata, St. Johns County, Florida, the probable type locality of Scolopendra marginata Say, produced specimens of the large scolopendromorph, Hemiscolopendra punctiventris (Newport) (Scolopendridae), with a \"margined\" color pattern similar to that reported in the original description of S. marginata. Accordingly, we resurrect this name from the synonymy of S. morsitans L. and propose Hemiscolopendra marginata (Say), n. comb., as a senior subjective synonym for S. punctiventris Newport, syn. nov.! A neotype is designated for S. marginata and deposited in the invertebrate collection at the Virginia Museum of Narural History. A full synonymy is provided for H. marginata, along with a review of its nomenclatorial history and distribution.

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.

Venoms have evolved over a hundred times in animals. Venom toxins are thought to evolve mostly by recruitment of endogenous proteins with physiological functions. Here we report phylogenetic analyses of venom proteome-annotated venom gland transcriptome data, assisted by genomic analyses, to show that centipede venoms have recruited at least five gene families from bacterial and fungal donors, involving at least eight horizontal gene transfer events. These results establish centipedes as currently the only known animals with venoms used in predation and defence that contain multiple gene families derived from horizontal gene transfer. The results also provide the first evidence for the implication of horizontal gene transfer in the evolutionary origin of venom in an animal lineage. Three of the bacterial gene families encode virulence factors, suggesting that horizontal gene transfer can provide a fast track channel for the evolution of novelty by the exaptation of bacterial weapons into animal venoms.

The evidence relating to the dating of new avian names from Vivarium naturae or the naturalist\’s miscellany is assembled and reviewed as are previous attempts to provide reliable dates. Although the overall framework for our understanding remains somewhat hypothetical this approach is necessary due to the limited internal evidence, but some corrections to current date usage are offered. The authorship of the scientific names is also discussed, as is the role of the Nodder family, and we conclude that Shaw should be considered the sole author.

The function of the variously shaped ultimate legs of Scolopendridae is briefly reviewed. Their function in Scolopendra heros Girard, 1853, Scolopendra subspinipes Leach, 1815, Scolopendra morsitans (Linnaeus, 1758), Scolopendra galapagoensis Bollman, 1889, Scolopendra hainanum Kronm\üller, 2012, Scolopendra spinosissima Kraepelin, 1903 Cormocephalus aurantiipes (Newport, 1844) and Ethmostigmus trigonopodus (Leach, 1817), in which they are least specialised has been investigated. Specimens were tapped with forceps on different parts of the trunk to simulate the attack of a predator. When tapped on the first third of the trunk (near the head), the centipedes attacked the forceps with their forcipules. When tapped on the last third or the ultimate legs, they adopted a warning position, raising the ultimate legs to display the ventral and medial prefemoral spines as well as the spined coxopleural processes. In some cases the centipedes attacked the forceps with the claws of the ultimate legs by chopping down on them after lifting the legs high into the warning position. When tapped in the mid part of the trunk, the centipedes curled sideways to reach the forceps with their forcipules and ultimate legs simultaneously. Scolopendra galapagoensis not only lifted the ultimate legs into the warning position but also the last 3-4 pairs of locomotory legs, presenting their distodorsal prefemoral spines. This resembles the warning posture of some spiders. In addition to their function in warning behaviour, defensive stabbing, ritualised meeting reactions and during courtship behaviour, the ultimate legs may in addition act as hooks and perhaps be involved in species recognition. No evidence was found that the ultimate legs are used to catch prey, nor of prey or predators being held between the prefemora.

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.

Ten years have passed since the last checklist of Hispaniolan Chilopoda was done and the last bibliographic compendium was published. In this work we expand the former list of species and bibliography, update the taxonomic classification and provide an assessment on Chilobase records. A new intensive literature review was performed and both recent and formerly overlooked myriapodological works were included. The treatment of supraspecific taxonomic ranks was updated and follows Chilobase 2.0. This catalogue lists 4 fossil taxa as well as 24 extant species of centipedes from Hispaniola, 9 of which are endemic. For each extant species considered, there is information on Hispaniolan synonymies and geographic distribution. Included are some clarifications on synonymies and locality problems, and species with uncertain taxonomic status are indicated. Chilobase 2.0 was tested for completeness and accuracy. We propose several updates, grouped by incorrect species records, records not backed by known literature and species not under their currently accepted synonym. We also recommend chilopodologists to maintain active collaboration and send their updates to this useful database.
