With the increase in taxonomic data it has become apparent that some characters are less reliable as phylogenetic and taxonomic characters in the Scolopendromorpha than previously thought. Examples of this are considered. The problematic scolopocryptopid subfamily Kethopinae is discussed. New World species of Scolopendra Linnaeus, 1758 plus the Old World species S. valida Lucas, 1840 are a monophyletic group, usually with an anterior transverse sulcus (ring furrow) on T1. A subgroup of ten species have 17 antennal articles, and dorsodistal prefemoral spines on legs anterior to the ultimate pair. A second subgroup of six species have more than 17 antennal articles and lack the dorsodistal prefemoral spines on legs anterior to the ultimate pair. Exceptions are discussed. S. valida fits into neither group. Some Cryptops (Trigonocryptops) Verhoeff, 1906 lack the otherwise characteristic sternite trigonal sutures and C. (Cryptops) anomalans Newport, 1844 shows some of the morphological characters used to characterise Trigonocryptops Verhoeff, 1906. The rather incomplete data for Kethops utahensis (Chamberlin, 1909) (Scolopocryptopidae, Kethopinae) and the description of Thalkethops grallatrix Crabill, 1960 suggests that they are characterised by ultimate legs with rows of saw teeth on the prefemur, femur and tibia, with a single saw tooth on tarsus 1. This is not the case, however, in K. atypus Chamberlin, 1943 which shows characters typical of many Cryptops species and may be a Cryptops with 23 leg-bearing segments. The reason why some important characters may be overlooked is discussed.

Morphological reexamination and first images of the holotypes of Cryptops nautiphilus and C. orizaba (Chilopoda, Scolopendromorpha, Cryptopidae)

Abstract: In 1939 and 1943, R.V. Chamberlin erected Cryptops nautiphilus and C. orizaba, respectively, based on specimens collected in Mexico. In the original species description, Chamberlin omitted certain morphological characters and did not provide illustrations. In this work, the first images for the species are showed and some morphological characteristics are reexamined based on the revision of holotypes deposited in the Entomology Collection of National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) at the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.

The paper provides new data on seven scolopendromorph centipede species collected in Martinique Island. Two new species are described: Otostigmus (Parotostigmus) salticus n. sp. and Cryptops (Trigonocryptops) martinicensis n. sp.; their systematic position is discussed. Notes on the system of subgenus Trigonocryptops Verhoeff, 1906 are given and Cryptops sarasini var. furcata Ribaut, 1923 is confirmed as subspecies. Cormocephalus guildingii Newport, 1845, Newportia longitarsis guadeloupensis Demange, 1981 and N. pusilla Pocock, 1893 are reported from Martinique for the first time. A list of the Scolopendromorpha of this island is given.
