Diversity and biogeography of Israeli geophilomorph centipedes (Chilopoda: Geophilomorpha).
The fauna of Chilopoda Geophilomorpha of Israel has been analyzed after examining 128 new specimens from 35 localities, reinterpreting all published data including 103 records, and relating occurrence of species with major climatic parameters. A key to identification has been compiled. A total of 17 species are distinguished, of which three are reported from Israel for the first time, while fiv...
متن کاملArthropod Segmentation: Why Centipedes Are Odd
Recent work has revealed a double segmental periodicity of gene expression in the centipede, a potential molecular explanation for the observation that this arthropod always has an odd number of trunk segments. Is this an oddity of centipedes, or might it mean that double segmental pair-rule patterning dates back to the Ur-arthropod?
متن کاملMillipedes and centipedes in German greenhouses (Myriapoda: Diplopoda, Chilopoda)
A review is given of all the literature records of millipedes and centipedes that have been found in German greenhouses together with additional records for 29 such sites. Species lists are given for 46 greenhouses investigated throughout Germany. Thirty-five diplopod and 18 chilopod species were found to occur in greenhouses, of which 15 (3 Chilopoda, 12 Diplopoda) are restricted to this type ...
متن کاملA common terminology for the external anatomy of centipedes (Chilopoda)
A common terminology for the external morphological characters of centipedes (Chilopoda) is proposed. Terms are selected from the alternatives used in the English literature, preferring those most frequently used or those that have been introduced explicitly. A total of 330 terms are defined and illustrated, and another ca. 500 alternatives are listed.
متن کاملCentipedes subdue giant prey by blocking KCNQ channels
Centipedes can subdue giant prey by using venom, which is metabolically expensive to synthesize and thus used frugally through efficiently disrupting essential physiological systems. Here, we show that a centipede (Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans, ∼3 g) can subdue a mouse (∼45 g) within 30 seconds. We found that this observation is largely due to a peptide toxin in the venom, SsTx, and further...
