2022
Martín Carrillo-Pallares | Daniela Martínez-Torres | Gabriel R. Navas-S
Based on the available literature and a review of collections of organisms, a checklist of 69 myriapod species was made for the Colombian Caribbean region; two symphyls, 15 Chilopods, and 52 Diplopods. In total, 20 families (one from Symphyla, five from Chilopoda, and 14 from Diplopoda), from 11 orders (one from Symphyla, three from Chilopoda, and seven from Diplopoda). Each species's geographical range by department, altitud, reference collection, and bibliographic source were included. The presence in Colombian collections of diplopod specimens that are new records of their taxonomic group for the region, such as Chondrodesmus cf. riparius (Chelodesmidae), two species of Fuhrmannodesmidae, three of Paradoxosomatidae and one of Lophoproctidae. Likewise, two species of Scolopendrellidae of the class Symphyla. This demonstrates the urgent need to complete the essential diversity inventories of the main groups of organisms in the face of the alarming environmental deterioration to which the Colombian Caribbean region is subjected.
