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.

New localities are reported to detail the distributions of the order Siphonophorida and the family Siphonophoridae in the southwestern and southcentral United States, and northern Mexico. The northernmost sites are in Los Angeles County, California; Yavapai County, Arizona; and Coryell County, Texas. The Siphonorhinidae is represented by only one genus and species, Illacme plenipes Cook & loomis, known only from northern San Benito County, California, the northernmost ordinal record. Congeneric starus is confirmed for Siphonacme lyttoni Cook & loomis, in Arizona, and S. pseustes (Chamberlin), in Sonora, Mexico; Californizonium Verhoeff is synonymized under Siphonacme Cook & loomis. Diagnostic illustrations are presented for I. plenipes, S. lyttoni and pseustes, and Siphonophora limitare Loomis and texascolens Chamberlin & Mulaik.

The California milliped genus Xystocheir Cook, occurring along the Pacific Coast and the western slope of the Sierra Nevada, comprises nine species, three being divided into a total of seven subspecies; the species are combined into four species-groups named for the oldest component. Xystocheir dissecta (Wood), abundant around San Francisco – San Pablo and Monterey bays, comprises intergrades, one true subspecies, and two apparent semispecies that are treated as subspecies; additionally, a local population in southern Mendocino County has achieved reproductive isolation and attained species status. Two new combinations, X. reducta (Causey) and X. modestior (Chamberlin), are proposed, along with the following new synonymies: Paimokia Chamberlin under Xystocheir, X. acuta Cook, X. francisca and X. milpitas, both by Chamberlin, and Cheirauxus sapiens Chamberlin under X. d. dissecta, new status; and Delocheir conservata and D. dalea, both by Chamberlin, under X. dissecta taibona Chamberlin, new status. The following new species-group taxa are diagnosed: the subspecies Xystocheir dissecta microrama, Xystocheir modestior haerens, and Xystocheir stolonifera uncinata, and the species X. prolixorama, X. solenofurcata, X. brachymacris, X. stenomacris, X. bistipita, and X. stolonifera.
