Resumen: Se muestra un listado revisado y actualizado de los cent\ípedos o ciempi\és (Myriapoda, Chilopoda) registrados en Venezuela. Hasta el presente se conocen 90 especies y dos subespecies, agrupadas en 22 g\éneros, 11 familias y cuatro \órdenes (Scutigeromorpha, Lithobiomorpha, Scolopendromorpha, Geophilomorpha). De \éstas, 68 (73,91\%) especies/subespecies son consideradas end\émicas. Se comenta sobre su importancia m\édica, y las necesidades de investigaci\ón en el pa\ís.

Checklist of centipede species (Myriapoda, Chilopoda) known from Venezuela

Abstract: A revised and updated checklist of the centipedes (Myriapoda, Chilopoda) registered from Venezuela is shown. Up untill now, 90 centipede species and two subspecies have been recorded, grouped into 22 genus forming 11 families and four orders (Scutigeromorpha, Lithobiomorpha, Scolopendromorpha, Geophilomorpha). Of these, 68 (73,91\%) species/subspecies appear to be considered as endemic. Medical relevance and research needs on the Venezuelan class Chilopoda, is discussed.

A collection of scolopendromorph centipedes from the U.S. Virgin Islands is described. It comprises five species Scolopendra alternans, Cormocephalus impulsus sp. nov., Otostigmus (Parotostigmus) caraibicus, Newportia longitarsis virginensis subsp. nov., and Cryptops neocaledonicus muchmorei subsp. nov.

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.
