Abstract

BACKGROUND

The geophilomorph (Attems, 1907) was originally described from a small number of males collected from bat guano in Tjompea (Ciampea), Java. Subsequently, no additional material was identified. The type series remained the only specimens belonging to this genus known from Asia.

NEW INFORMATION

is re-discovered 118 years after its original description amongst centipedes collected from soil cores taken during the 1977-1978 Royal Geographical Society Gunung Mulu Expedition to Sarawak (Borneo, East Malaysia) and is deposited in the collection of the Natural History Museum (London). The new material comprising 49 specimens, amongst which are the first known females, is described and illustrated, shedding light on intraspecific morphological variation. The syntypes and sole previously available specimens are redescribed and illustrated, completing the summary original description of the species. Ecological and biogeographical notes are provided for Sarawak specimens.

摘要

背景

土栖蜈蚣（Attems，1907）最初是根据从爪哇的乔姆佩亚（恰姆佩亚）蝙蝠粪便中采集的少量雄性标本描述的。随后，未鉴定出其他标本。模式系列仍然是亚洲已知的该属唯一标本。

新信息

在其最初描述118年后，在1977 - 1978年皇家地理学会对砂拉越（东马来西亚婆罗洲的姆鲁山）进行考察期间从土壤芯中采集的蜈蚣中重新发现了它，并保存在自然历史博物馆（伦敦）的馆藏中。描述并说明了包含49个标本的新材料，其中有已知的首批雌性标本，揭示了种内形态变异。重新描述并说明了模式标本和之前仅有的可用标本，完善了该物种的原始描述总结。还提供了砂拉越标本的生态和生物地理学说明。
