Millipedes and centipedes (Myriapoda: Diplopoda, Chilopoda) in Swiss heated greenhouses, with seven species new for Switzerland

The woodlice of Switzerland (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea), with 6 new records from heated greenhouses

“…The most recently arrived species is Venezillo parvus, recorded in the Zoo of Rotherdam, the Netherlands, by Soesbergen (2003). The proportion of non-native to native species of woodlice is similar to those found in spiders, centipedes and millipedes in the same greenhouses (Hänggi et al, 2021;Gilgado et al, 2022a). The same survey has also resulted in new species records for Switzerland in exotic spiders (Hänggi et al, 2021), centipedes and millipedes (Gilgado et al, 2022a), short-tailed whipscorpions (Krajčovičová et al, 2021), and silverfi shes (Gilgado et al, 2021).…”

“…In each greenhouse two methods for invertebrate sampling were used: active search (30 minutes per greenhouse) and pitfall trapping (56 trap days per greenhouse). At localities where more than one greenhouse was present (Porrentruy, Geneva, Zurich, and Fribourg), we used both sampling methods in the greenhouse that had the highest air temperature and humidity, and only applied active search in the other one (see details in Gilgado et al, 2022a). In the Swiss National Park, we used pitfall traps to collect woodlice in four sampling localities in Val Trupchun and the lower parts of Val Müschauns, S-chanf, Grisons, in summer of 2018 (for sampling details see Gilgado et al, 2022b).…”

An updated synthesis of the Geophilomorpha (Chilopoda) of Asian Russia

“… Tygarrup javanicus – Bonato et al 2004 ; Nefediev 2019 : 24; Tuf et al 2018 : 560; Damasiewicz and Leśniewska 2020 : 52; Gilgado et al 2022 : 92. …”

“…Western Siberia: Altai krai ( Nefediev 2019 ). Outside Asian Russia: Southeast Asia and introduced in Europe (e.g., Bonato et al 2004 ; Tuf et al 2018 ; Damasiewicz and Leśniewska 2020 ; Gilgado et al 2022 ).…”

On the Chilopoda fauna of the Pamir Mts, Tajikistan, with notes on the highest records of chilopod species in Middle Asia

“…Distribution. From Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan (Dyachkov 2020a;Dyachkov & Nedoev 2021), and Tajikistan (present record) to Papua New Guinea and Tonga (Gilgado et al 2022); known also from greenhouses in Great Britain (Barber 2009), Germany (Decker et al 2014), andSwitzerland (Gilgado et al 2022) as anthropochore introduced species.…”
