Transcription of labels: |MZS Myr 424|, handwritten, pencil, Marie Meister’s label. |Scolopendra viridis Say Speyer 1901 Monterey Mexico|, handwritten, pencil, Karl Kraepelin’s label. |Hemiscolopendra marginata (Say, 1821) Det: C. Mtnez 15.iii.2017|, handwritten, ink, Carlos Martínez’s label.
Curatorial remark: Speyer is a vendor, not a field collector.
Taxonomic remarks: A label in the jar containing the MZS-Myr-424 specimen vial attributes the identifications to Kraepelin. The misidentification of the specimen as S. viridis by Kraepelin is noticeable because he (Kraepelin, 1903) established the genus Hemiscolopendra. The MZS-Myr-424 specimen lacks tarsal spurs on all legs.
