The centipede genus Scolopendra in mainland Southeast Asia is reviewed taxonomically based on morphological characters, informed by a molecular phylogenetic analysis using sequences from three mitochondrial and nuclear genes (COI, 16S rRNA and 28S rRNA). Eight nominal species of Scolopendra, namely S. morsitans Linnaeus, 1758, S. subspinipes Leach, 1816, S. dehaani Brandt, 1840, S. multidens Newport, 1844, S. calcarata Porat, 1876, S. japonica Koch, 1878, S. pinguis Pocock, 1891, and S. dawydoffi Kronm\üller, 2012, are redescribed together with some revision of type materials. Geographical variation in each species has been compiled with reference to samples that span their distribution ranges in Southeast Asia and some parts of neighbouring areas such as East Asia, the Indian Ocean, and Africa. Comparative study of traditional taxonomic characters from external morphology provides further information to distinguish some closely related species. Scolopendra cataracta Siriwut, Edgecombe \& Panha, sp. n., is described from the southern part of Laos, with additional records in Thailand and Vietnam. The phylogenetic framework for Southeast Asian Scolopendra recognizes S. calcarata + S. pinguis, S. morsitans, and a S. subspinipes group that unites the other six species as the main clades. Within the S. subspinipes group, two monophyletic groups can be distinguished by having either slender or short, thick ultimate leg prefemora and different numbers of apical spines on the coxopleuron. Scolopendra arborea Lewis, 1982, is placed in subjective synonymy with S. dehaani. A survey of external morphology of the genital segments confirms its potential for improving species identification in Scolopendra. Some observations on biology and behaviour are recorded based on field surveys in this area.

Data about the millipedes (Diplopoda) in the Brdy Protected Landscape Area (Central Bohemia, the Czech Republic) are summarized for the first time in this contribution. A substantial part of the analysed material was obtained during 2016 and 2017, complemented by several findings from the previous time. Millipedes were sampled at 31 sites in different forest localities. The open sites, such as grasslands, heaths, rocky outcrops and open stony debris were also partly investigated. In total 35 millipede species were recorded using the combination of individual sampling, pitfall trapping and litter sieving with subsequent heat extraction of invertebrates. The highest diversity of millipede assemblages were found in well preserved ravines and mixed beech forest stands (localities Klobou{\v c}ek and Valdek) and also in highly diversified synantropic sites (Borovno). The highest frequency of occurrence was recorded for the millipede species Polydesmus complanatus, Mycogona germanica, Glomeris connexa and Leptoiulus noricus. The occurrence of Pachypodoiulus eurypus, Glomeris klugii, Haasea flavescens and Haploporatia eremita underline natural character of a number of localities within this protected area and suggest geographical consequences of given territory with neighbouring regions of Central Europe.

Data about the millipedes (Diplopoda) in the K{\v r}ivokl\átsko Protected Landscape Area and Biosphere Reserve (Czech Republic) are summarised in the article. In 1994\–2007, millipedes were studied at 36 sites there using the combination of three methods; individual sampling of invertebrates, pitfall trapping and soil sampling with subsequent heat extraction of animals. In total, 44 millipede species were recorded. The most frequent were the common European or Central European millipedes Megaphyllum projectum, Polydesmus complanatus, Ochogona caroli, Mycogona germanica, Glomeris connexa and Unciger foetidus. Beside this, some rare species, e.g. Listrocheiritium septentrionale, Melogona transsylvanica (the first record for the Czech Republic), Pachypodoiulus eurypus and Trachysphaera costata, together with frequent occurrence of high numbers of species per site confirmed well-preserved natural habitats within the given protected area. The highest per site numbers of species were found in the T\ý{\v r}ov National Nature Reserve (28 species) and the V{\r u}znice National Nature Reserve (26 species). Concerning the assemblages of millipedes, according to contemporary knowledge, the K{\v r}ivokl\átsko PLA and BR seems to be the richest area in the Czech Republic and probably one of the richest areas also in the whole Central Europe.

Discovery of the lithobiomorph centipede Lithobius lemairei Iorio, Zapparoli, Ponel \& Geoffroy, 2015 (Chilopoda, Lithobiomorpha) and of several soil-dwelling beetles (Insecta, Coleoptera) in Nice (Maritime Alps)

The soil-dwelling (endogeic) centipede Lithobius lemairei has been observed in the gardens of the Villa Paradiso in Nice (Alpes-Maritimes, France). Some criteria are briefly described and the species is transferred to the subgenus Sigibius Chamberlin, 1913. Several determinant species of soil-dwelling beetles have also been found in the same station: Bathysciola guillaumensis Avon \& Courtial, 2006, Paramaurops varensis Binaghi, 1945 and Rhopaletes solifugus Ganglbauer, 1895. Despite its urban localization, this garden has a strong ecological interest, because the calcareous sector where these species live has been preserved for a long time.

Syrioiulus lohmanderi sp. nov. is described from material collected in Gilan Province, northwestern Iran. The new species is morphologically most similar to S. astrabadensis (Lohmander, 1932a) and S. persicus (Golovatch, 1983), also known only from the northern parts of Iran. A key to the species of Syrioiulus Verhoeff, 1914 recorded from this country is compiled, and a checklist of all species presently assigned to the genus is given. Syrioiulus adsharicus (Lohmander, 1936) and S. cappadocius (Lohmander, 1939) are transferred from Amblyiulus Silvestri, 1896. The taxonomic problems within Syrioiulus and related genera are briefly discussed.

The superorder Colobognatha is represented in the Caucasus by three genera and species, one each in the orders Polyzoniida, Platydesmida and Siphonocryptida. Hirudisoma roseum (Victor, 1839) (Hirudisomatidae, Polyzoniida) is especially widespread, ranging from S Russia, Abkhazia, Georgia (with a neotype designated and described from Kakhetia, E Georgia) and NW Azerbaijan to E Turkey, and also including H. ponticum (Lohmander, 1939) (junior subjective synonym, syn. nov.). Fioria hyrcana Golovatch, 1980 (Andrognathidae, Platydesmida) is endemic to the Hyrcanian parts of the Republic of Azerbaijan and NW Iran along the western and southern coasts of the Caspian Sea. Due to the finding of Hirudicryptus abchasicus sp. nov. (Siphonocryptidae, Siphonocryptida), from a single locality in Abkhazia, NW Caucasus, the order Siphonocryptida is new to the fauna of the region. A key to all four species of the trans-Palaearctic genus Hirudicryptus is given. All three Caucasian species of Colobognatha are described in due detail and abundantly illustrated, and their distributions mapped.

The centipede fauna of the second largest island in the world, New Guinea, and its adjacent islands, is poorly known, with most information deriving from the first half of the 20th century. Here we present new data on the order Scolopendromorpha based on material collected in the area in the last 40 years, mainly by Bulgarian and Latvian zoologists. The collections comprise eleven species of six genera and three families. The diagnosis of Cryptops (Trigonocryptops) is emended in the light of the recent findings. The old and doubtful record of Scolopendra multidens Newport, 1844 from New Guinea is referred to S. subspinipes Leach, 1815 and the species is here excluded from the present day list of New Guinean scolopendromorphs. Cryptops nepalensis Lewis, 1999 is here recorded from New Guinea for the first time. An annotated list and an identification key to the scolopendromorphs of the studied region are presented.

The diplopod fauna of Georgia, Transcaucasia, is very rich given the country\’s relatively small territory, presently comprising 95 species from 42 genera, 12 families, and seven orders. Most of the Diplopoda known from Georgia are subendemics (39 species, or 38\%), shared with one or more neighbouring countries, but another 33 species (33\%) are strict endemics, nearly all highly localized, including 12 presumed troglobites. Several genera are likewise endemic to Georgia, including a few troglobionts. Within Georgia, the fauna of the western part (= Colchis) is particularly rich and diverse, the faunas of the central and eastern parts of the country growing increasingly depauperate inland and apparently following a rather gradual climatic aridisation gradient from west (the Black Sea coast) to east (Armenia and Azerbaijan). Much more work to include alpine and cave environments is required in order to reveal and refine the real diversity of Georgia\’s Diplopoda.

Since the year 2003, six millipede species new for the Czech Republic were announced. All of them were discovered in small populations mostly in natural habitats. They can be divided into two groups. One is represented by rare, relict and stenoecic species (Hungarosoma bokori, Hylebainosoma tatranum and Melogona transsylvanica). The other group is represented by species exhibiting a closer relationship to subterranean habitats in the Czech Republic (Brachychaeteuma bradeae, Macrosternodesmus palicola and Geoglomeris subterranea); their presence in the Czech Republic was revealed by modified pitfall traps used for collecting of deep-living invertebrates and by combination of several methods used during the research in caves. All six species are listed in the Red List of Threatened Invertebrates in the Czech Republic.
