R\ésum\é: Niphatrogleuma wildbergeri n. g., n. sp. est un remarquable diplopode troglobie qui vient d\’\être d\écouvert dans une grotte d\’altitude (2455 m) des Alpes calcaires suisses (Karst de Rawyl). Outre ses caract\ères externes de troglobie (d\épigmentation totale, allongement des appendices), ses caract\ères gonopodiaux pl\ésiomorphiques t\émoignent de sa nature r\élictuelle ancienne. Cette forme appartient \à un genre nouveau que l\’on peut classer dans la cohorte d\éclinante (chorologie dispers\ée, nombreux cavernicoles et endog\és) des Cleidogonoidea, qui peuplent l\’Am\érique du Nord, l\’Europe, l\’Asie, et qui viennent d\’\être trouv\és aussi en Australie.

Abstract: A remarkable new genus of troglobitic milliped was gathered in a cave of the alpin zone (altitude 2455 m) concealed under the snow ten months per year. Besides its external troglobitic characters (complete depigmentation, elongation of legs and antenna), its plesiomorphic gonopodial characters bear witness to an old relictual form. This new genus can be classified among the declining group Cleidogonoidea (scattered chorology, numerous endogeous and cavernicolous forms), present in North America, Europa, Asia and even Australia.

The present paper refers to the description of two new species of the previously monospecific genus Guipuzcosoma, viz., Guipuzcosoma karinae sp. nov. and G. reipi sp. nov. Given the unique combination of characters of this genus, we have established a higher taxonomic category, Guipuzcosomatidae fam. nov., which is clearly different from the family Vandeleumatidae, to which Guipuzcosoma was assigned earlier. Based on the structures of the anterior and posterior gonopods, we speculate that the new family may belong to the superfamilies Anthroleucosomatoidea or Cleidogonoidea. A diagnosis of the family, a brief description of the genus, as well as a diagnosis of all three species and detailed descriptions with illustrations of the two new species are presented. All three species were mapped. Additionally, some problems related to the taxonomy and classification within Chordeumatida, as well as the hypothetical association of the new family with some other chordeumatidans, are briefly discussed. Finally, the monospecific genus Miniusoma Mauri\ès, 2014 is transferred here from the family Vandeleumatidae to the family Anthogonidae.

Urbanisation is increasing worldwide and is regarded a major driver of environmental change altering local species assemblages. Private domestic gardens contribute a significant share of total green area in cities, but their biodiversity has received relatively little attention. Previous studies mainly considered plants, flying invertebrates such as bees and butterflies, and birds. By using a multi-taxa approach focused on less mobile, ground-dwelling invertebrates, we examined the influence of local garden characteristics and landscape characteristics on species richness and abundance of gastropods, spiders, millipedes, woodlice, ants, ground beetles and rove beetles. We assume that most of the species of these groups are able to complete their entire life cycle within a single garden. We conducted field surveys in thirty-five domestic gardens along a rural-urban gradient in Basel, Switzerland. Considered together, the gardens examined harboured an impressive species richness, with a mean share of species of the corresponding groups known for Switzerland of 13.9\%, ranging from 4.7\% in ground beetles to 23.3\% in woodlice. The overall high biodiversity is a result of complementary contributions of gardens harbouring distinct species assemblages. Indeed, at the garden level, species richness of different taxonomical groups were typically not inter-correlated. The exception was ant species richness, which was correlated with those of gastropods and spiders. Generalised linear models revealed that distance to the city centre is an important driver of species richness, abundance and composition of several groups, resulting in an altered species composition in gardens in the centre of the city. Local garden characteristics were important drivers of gastropod and ant species richness, and the abundance of spiders, millipedes and rove beetles. Our study shows that domestic gardens make a valuable contribution to regional biodiversity. Thus, domestic urban gardens constitute an important part of green infrastructure, which should be considered by urban planners.

Diplopoda are poorly studied in many regions. The last comprehensive work on the millipede fauna of Switzerland was published in 1993 and listed 124 outdoor-living species. Recent sampling efforts have resulted in the discovery of six millipede species of European origin that were not previously known to occur in Switzerland: Cylindroiulus britannicus (Verhoeff, 1891), C. salicivorus\ Verhoeff, 1908, C. vulnerarius (Berlese, 1888), Heteroiulus intermedius (Br\ölemann, 1892), Anamastigona pulchella (Silvestri, 1894) and Macrosternodesmus palicola\ Br\ölemann, 1908. None of them is currently invasive in Switzerland, but some are rapidly expanding across Europe and other regions of the world. A species which was previously only known from northern Italy, H. intermedius, was found in a forest close to Bellinzona. It is likely a native Swiss species which has previously been overlooked. The other five species were collected in human-made habitats in the city of Basel and its surroundings, suggesting human-caused introduction. Two species, C. britannicus and M. palicola, likely have an Atlantic origin, while the three remaining species, C. salicivorus, C. vulnerarius and A. pulchella, are originally from Italy. The biogeography of these six species is discussed, and photographs of specimens of each species and their gonopods are presented.

The diplopod fauna of Georgia, Transcaucasia, is very rich given the country\’s relatively small territory; it presently comprises 103 species from 44 genera, 12 families, and 7 orders. Most of the Diplopoda known from Georgia (86 species, or 83\%) demonstrate Caucasian distribution patterns, 36 and 46 species, as well as 8 and 9 genera being endemic or subendemic to the country, respectively. A single Holarctic family, Anthroleucosomatidae (order Chordeumatida), contains 44 Caucasian species and 20 genera, of which 27 species and 14 genera are endemic or subendemic to Georgia. Likewise, all species from the orders Polyzoniida, Siphonocryptida, Glomerida and Chordeumatida, as well as most species of Julida and Polydesmida are native, also endemic or subendemic to the Caucasus, but the genera and families they represent are widely distributed at least across the Euro-Mediterranean Realm. Most of the presumed troglobionts in the Caucasus appear to be confined to western Georgia\’s karst caves (14 species, 5 genera). Within Georgia, the fauna of the western part (= Colchis) is particularly rich and diverse, while that of the central and eastern parts of the country grows increasingly depauperate inland following the gradual climatic aridisation from west (Black Sea coast) to east (Armenia and Azerbaijan). The vertical distribution of the Diplopoda in Georgia, as well as the Caucasus generally, shows the bulk of the fauna restricted to forested lowland to mountain biomes or their remnants. Only very few Chordeumatida and Julus species seem to occur solely in the subalpine to alpine environments and thus may provisionally be considered as high-montane elements. Ongoing and future research on the millipedes of the Caucasus, especially in cave and montane environments, will undoubtedly allow for many more novelties and details of the diversity and distribution of Georgia\’s Diplopoda to be revealed or refined.
