Abstract:

Resumen: En 1939 y 1943, R.V. Chamberlin erigió a Cryptops nautiphilus y Cryptops orizaba, respectivamente, a partir de especímenes recolectados en México. Chamberlin no proporcionó ilustraciones. En este trabajo, se presentan las primeras imágenes de las especies y se describen algunas características morfológicas con base en la revisión de los holótipos depositados en la Colección Entomológica del National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) del Smithsonian Institution en Washington, D.C.

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.
