Two new troglobitic Newportia (Newportia) from Brazil (Chilopoda: Scolopendromorpha)
Zootaxa, 2014Newportia (Newportia) spelaea n. sp. and Newportia (N.) potiguar n. sp. are here described from Bahia and Rio Grande do Norte State, respectively. These two species show highly troglomorphic traits, such as elongation of antennae, legs, ultimate legs, tergites, pronounced depigmentation and reduced sclerotization of the cuticle.

Order Scolopendromorpha Pocock, 1895 Diagnosis: Epimorpha with 21, 23, 39 or 43 leg-bearing trunk segments. Eye a cluster of four ocelli, single ocellus or absent. Antenna with 17–34 (usually 17–21) articles. Single tergite covers maxillipede and first legbearing trunk segments. Trunk heterotergy slight, distinct in at least anterior segments.

Sperm dimorphism in Chilopoda: comparison of Scolopendromorpha and Geophilomorpha
Invertebrate Reproduction & Development, 1999Summary Micro- and macrospermatozoa were found in the male genital duct and female spermatheca of Scolopendra cingulata (Scolopendromorpha), whereas sperm dimorphism was not encountered in Himantarium gabrielis (Geophilomorpha). On the basis of ultrastructural analysis, the micro-and macrosperm of S. cingulata and the single sperm type of H.

List of Scolopendromorpha of Saint Barthélemy Island Data on the Chilopoda of St. Barthélemy Island is very scarce. In 1847, C.L. Koch described Scolopendra crudelis from “Barthelmi”. Shelley (2006) recorded four species of the genus Scolopendra for this island: S. alternans Leach, 1815 (p.

Mitochondrial DNA, 2013
The first complete mitogenome sequence of Scolopendromorpha is reported herein. The mitochondrial genome of Scolopocryptops sp. (Scolopendromorpha: Scolopocryptopidae) is a circular molecule of 15,119 bp in length. The orientation and gene order of the Scolopocryptops mitogenome are identical to that of Limulus polyphemus, except that the position of ...

A contribution to the centipede fauna of Venezuela (Chilopoda: Scolopendromorpha)
Zootaxa, 2014The descriptions of twelve Venezuelan Scolopendromorpha, a list of species, identification key and detailed list of localities are presented. Cryptops (C.) venezuelae Chamberlin, 1939, known only from the holotype has been re-described and Scolopendra conjungens Muralewicz, 1913 reduced to a junior synonym of Scolopendra angulata Newport, 1844 syn. nov.

Some taxonomic and nomenclatural inconsistencies in the Scolopendridae are clarified. Heterostoma cribriferum var. robustum Haase, 1887 is placed in synonymy under Ethmostigmus rubripes platycephalus (Newport, 1845), and the synonymy of Congobius Dobroruka, 1968 and Parotostigmus Pocock, 1896 (a valid subgenus of Otostigmus Porat, 1876) is formalized ...

A New Scolopocryptopid Centipede from Northeastern Brazil (Chilopoda: Scolopendromorpha)
Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2004A new species of centipede, Scolopocryptops piauhyensis sp. n., is described from Piaui State, northeastern Brazil. It is the only species in this genus known to occur in the ‘caatinga’ biome. The new species is related to S. inversus (Chamberlin, 1921) and S.

END-PIECE FORMATION DURING SPERMIOGENESIS OF SCOLOPENDROMORPHA (CHILOPODA)
1993End-piece formation during spermiogenesis of two species of Scolopendromorpha, namely Scolopendra cingulata and S. clavipes, was examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Four important steps characterized the morphogenetic process: 1) preservation of a cytoplasmic appendage (plume) at the end of the tail; 2) formation of a short ...
