Unusual Genetic Diversity Within Thereuopoda clunifera (Wood, 1862) (Chilopoda: Scutigeromorpha) Revealed by Phylogeny and Divergence Times Using Mitochondrial Genomes [PDF]
InsectsAs one of the four primary evolutionary groups within myriapods, centipedes (Chilopoda) comprise approximately 3150 valid species. Recent molecular studies have begun to elucidate the phylogeny and time to divergence in Chilopoda; yet, identifying ...

Centipedes (Myriapoda, Chilopoda) of Aldabra Atoll (Seychelles). [PDF]
ZookeysCentipedes collected during Royal Society surveys of the arthropod fauna of the Aldabra Atoll in 1968–1975 are identified, described, and illustrated to provide the first checklist to the Aldabran centipede fauna, comprising 12 species. These newly include the lithobiomorph Lamyctes tristani (Pocock, 1893), the scolopendromorphs Scolopendra ...

Researches concerning the diversity and equitability of the Chilopoda populations from the deciduous forests [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2004 The author describes the Chilopoda associations from the durmast oak, beech and alder forests by the Motomura’s log-linear mathematical model. The Chilopoda associations present a diversity and equitability that is close enough to the log-linear ...
