“…Pictures of one of the gonopods of the holotypes were taken in the laboratory and assembled using the “Cell D ” automontage software of the Olympus Soft Imaging Solution GmbH package. The key to all species is principally based on the descriptions by Golovatch et al (2007a, 2007b, 2010, 2011a, 2011b). The holotypes, as well as most of the paratypes are housed in the Museum of Zoology, Chulalongkorn University ( CUMZ ), Bangkok, Thailand; paratypes have been donated to the collection of the Zoological Museum, State University of Moscow, Russia ( ZMUM ), as indicated in the text.…”

“…The large southeast Asian millipede genus Glyphiulus Gervais, 1847 has recently been reviewed and shown to comprise 57 species ranging from southern China, northern Laos, and northern Thailand in the north to southern Vietnam in the south (Golovatch et al 2007a, b; 2011a, b; Jiang et al 2017). Only one species, G. granulatus (Gervais, 1847), has attained a pantropical distribution due to numerous anthropochore introductions.…”

Two new species of Glyphiulus are described and illustrated from northern Laos. The epigean Glyphiulus subbedosae Likhitrakarn, Golovatch & Panha, sp. n. is the second member of the granulatus-group to be found in that country and it seems to be especially similar to G. bedosae Golovatch, Geoffroy, Mauriès & VandenSpiegel, 2007. However, it differs from the latter species by a row of several strong setae near the median marginal ridge on the paraprocts, combined with the gnathochilarium being considerably less densely setose on the caudal face, and the anterior gonopods showing a pair of smaller, apical, but larger lateral teeth on the coxosternal plate. Glyphiulus semicostulifer Likhitrakarn, Golovatch & Panha, sp. n. is the fourth member of the javanicus-group to be discovered in Laos, taken from a cave. It seems to be particularly similar to G. costulifer Golovatch, Geoffroy, Mauriès & VandenSpiegel, 2007, but is distinguished by the more sparsely alveolate background fine structure of the metazonae, coupled with the gnathochilarium being considerably less densely setose on the caudal face, much stronger paramedian prongs and 4-segmented telopodites on ♂ coxae 1, the slightly longer and more slender apicoparamedian sternal projections on the anterior gonopods, and the much longer flagella of the posterior gonopods. An identification key to and a distribution map of Glyphiulus species in Laos are also presented.

“…The most speciose genera are Glyphiulus Gervais, 1847 (Golovatch et al 2007a, 2007b, 2011b, 2011c, Golovatch et al 2012b) and Plusioglyphiulus Silvestri, 1923 (Golovatch et al 2009a, 2011a), followed by Trachyjulus Peters, 1864 (Golovatch et al 2012a) and Hypocambala Silvestri, 1895 (Golovatch et al 2011d). All of them largely contain epigean species, however at least two dozen Glyphiulus species (e.g.…”

Cave Diplopoda of southern China with reference to millipede diversity in Southeast Asia

The diversity of Diplopoda in caves of southern China is remarkably high, often 5–6 species per cave, consisting mostly of local endemics and presumed troglobionts. These are evidently biased to just a few lineages, mainly members of the orders Chordeumatida and Callipodida, the families Cambalopsidae (Spirostreptida) and Haplodesmidae (Polydesmida) or the genera Pacidesmus, Epanerchodus and Glenniea (all Polydesmida, Polydesmidae), Trichopeltis (Polydesmida, Cryptodesmidae), Dexmoxytes (Polydesmida, Paradoxosomatidae) and Hyleoglomeris (Glomerida, Glomeridae). All these taxa, especially the Paradoxosomatidae and Cambalopsidae (usually amounting to about 60% and 10% of the total species diversity in the Oriental fauna, respectively), are moderately to highly speciose across Southeast Asia, being largely epigean. However, the epigean Diplopoda of southern China are yet badly understudied, since much of the collecting and taxonomic exploration efforts still focus on cavernicoles. The Oriental Region is the only biogeographic realm globally that harbours all 16 orders of Diplopoda, of which 14 have already been encountered in China and/or the immediately adjacent parts of Indochina. Thus, China may actually prove to support no less than 1,000 millipede species of various origins, mainly Oriental and Palaearctic.

“…Mauriès (1977) considered that the two genera are distinguished only by the absence ( Hypocambala ) and presence ( Glyphiulus ) of transverse crests on body. Golovatch et al (2011) dealt with the crests as a species-level character, and transferred Glyphiulus vietnamicus Mauriès, 1977 to Hypocambala based on the complete male legs I. However, this arrangement didn’t fully resolve this problem.…”

Four new species of the Glyphiulus javanicus group from southern China (Diplopoda, Spirostreptida, Cambalopsidae)

Hitherto, 24 species of the Glyphiulus javanicus group have been recorded, all endemic to Southeast Asia, including 14 in China. Nevertheless, this species group needs further exploration. In this context, four new species of this group are described, all collected from limestone caves in Southern China: G. calceus sp. n., G. foetidus sp. n., G. guangnanensis sp. n., and G. impletus sp. n. They can be separated easily from each other and other congeners by their carinotaxic formulae, the structures of male legs I, and the gonopods. Due to the absence of any troglomorphic traits in our specimens, they may be troglophilic only.
