First Record of Cryptops (Cryptops) Hortensis (Donovan, 1810) in Southwestern Siberia, Russia (Chilopoda: Scolopendromorpha: Cryptopidae)

Abstract

Both the subgenus Cryptops (Cryptops) Leach, 1815 and C. (C.) hortensis (Donovan, 1810), as well as the family Cryptopidae to which they belong, are currently reported in the Asian part of Russia for the first time. All records of the species in southwestern Siberia are confined to hothouses. Distributional remarks are provided and all currently reported findings are mapped.

A review of the anthropochore centipede fauna of Middle Asia (Chilopoda)

“…DISTRIBUTION. A Turano-Euro-Mediterranean species [Zalesskaja, Schileyko, 1991, 1992Stoev, 2000;Dyachkov et al, 2022b] recorded from anthropogenic habitats in Sweden, Finland, Cis-Urals, and western Siberia [Nefediev et al, 2016a;Dyachkov, 2020;Farzalieva, Vilkova, 2023]. Middle Asia: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan [Zalesskaja, Schileyko, 1991, 1992, and Kazakhstan [Dyachkov, 2020].…”

New data on the scutigeromorph and scolopendromorph centipedes (Chilopoda: Scutigeromorpha: Scutigeridae; Scolopendromorpha: Scolopendridae, Cryptopidae) from Kazakhstan

“…DISTRIBUTION. Widespread in Europe, North Africa (Morocco), western Asia (Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan), Central Asia (Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan), introduced to the United States, Canada, St. Helena Island; Aus-tralia (Tasmania); recorded from synanthropic habitats in Sweden, Finland and western Siberia [Zalesskaja, Schileyko, 1991, 1992Barber, 2009;Lewis, 2011;Zuev, 2016;Nefediev et al, 2016b;Ostrovsky, 2018].…”

Millipede and centipede assemblages on the northern and southern slopes of the lowland Altais, southwestern Siberia, Russia (Diplopoda, Chilopoda)

“…Despite the recent increased interest in the myriapod fauna of southwestern Siberia (Mikhaljova et al 2007, 2008, 2014, 2015, Mikhaljova 2009, 2013, 2016, 2017, Nefediev et al 2013, 2014a, b, c, 2016a, b, c, 2017a, b, Nefedieva et al 2014, 2015, Nefediev 2016), the biodiversity and ecological characteristics of myriapods in the study area of the lowland Altais, a transition zone from the plains of the southwestern Siberia to the mountains of southern Siberia have not been studied to date.…”
