Apheloria Polychroma, a New Species of Millipede from the Cumberland Mountains (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae) PAUL E. MAREK1*
Apheloria polychroma, a new species of millipede from the Cumberland Mountains (Polydesmida: Xystodesmidae) PAUL E. MAREK1*, JACKSON C. MEANS1, DEREK A. HENNEN1 1Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Department of Entomology, Blacksburg, Virginia 24061, U.S.A. *Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract Millipedes of the genus Apheloria occur in temperate broadleaf forests throughout eastern North America and west of the Mississippi River in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains. Chemically defended with toxins made up of cyanide and benzaldehyde, the genus is part of a community of xystodesmid millipedes that compose several Müllerian mimicry rings in the Appalachian Mountains. We describe a model species of these mimicry rings, Apheloria polychroma n. sp., one of the most variable in coloration of all species of Diplopoda with more than six color morphs, each associated with a separate mimicry ring. Keywords: aposematic, Appalachian, Myriapoda, taxonomy, systematics Introduction Millipedes in the family Xystodesmidae are most diverse in the Appalachian Mountains where about half of the family’s species occur. In the New World, the family is distributed throughout eastern and western North America and south to El Salvador (Marek et al. 2014, Marek et al. 2017). Xystodesmidae occur in the Old World in the Mediterranean, the Russian Far East, Japan, western and eastern China, Taiwan and Vietnam. Taxa include species that are bioluminescent (genus Motyxia) and highly gregarious (genera Parafontaria and Pleuroloma); some form Müllerian mimicry rings. Despite their fascinating biology and critical ecological function as native decomposers in broadleaf deciduous forests in the U.S., their alpha-taxonomy is antiquated, and scores of new species remain undescribed.

Kamble, S. S. Patil and S. B. Patil Department of Zoology, Hutatma Rajguru Mahavidyalaya, Rajgurunagar, Pune University, (MH) India Abstract The Diplopods are commonly known as millipedes which mean “Thousand lege rs”, though it is a gross exaggeration. The millipedes are sluggish, timid and secretive creatures avoiding enemies and hiding in dark and damp places such as under stones, logs and barks, among decaying leaves or in moss or rotten wood. Current knowledge on the effects of climate, food quality and land cover on millipedes is reviewed. The different period was used to study of diversity of millipedes species. In present research concludes the diversity of millipede rich in part of Northern Weste rn Ghats of Rajgurunagar (M.S.) India. A total 8 species of millipedes belonging to order polydesmida and spirobolida, were recorded from tropical or agricultural landscape of Rajgurunagar. At the time of diversity study, Trigoniulus corallines and Orthomorphase were observed more than other millipede species, which supports the environmental determinism condition.

United States National Museum ^^*fr?*5j Bulletin 212 CHECKLIST OF THE MILLIPEDS OF NORTH AMERICA By RALPH V. CHAMBERLIN Department of Zoology University of Utah RICHARD L. HOFFMAN Department of Biology Virginia Polytechnic Institute SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION • WASHINGTON, D. C. • 1958 Publications of the United States National Museum The scientific publications of the National Museum include two series known, respectively, as Proceedings and Bulletin. The Proceedings series, begun in 1878, is intended primarily as a medium for the publication of original papers based on the collections of the National Museum, that set forth newly acquired facts in biology, anthropology, and geology, with descriptions of new forms and revisions of limited groups. Copies of each paper, in pamphlet form, are distributed as published to libraries and scientific organizations and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The dates at which these separate papers are published are recorded in the table of contents of each of the volumes. The series of Bulletins, the first of which was issued in 1875, contains separate publications comprising monographs of large zoological groups and other general systematic treatises (occasionally in several volumes), faunal works, reports of expeditions, catalogs of type specimens, special collections, and other material of similar nature. The majority of the volumes are octavo in size, but a quarto size has been adopted in a few in- stances. In the Bulletin series appear volumes under the heading Contribu- tions from the United States National Herbarium, in octavo form, published by the National Museum since 1902, which contain papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum.

Insects of the Arboretum
Insects of the Arboretum B Y P ATRICK C . T O B IN et’s face it. When most of us think of insects, we think of pests. In fact, the very definition of “pest” from the Webster’s dictionary includes the word “insect.” But out of the more than one million described species of insects, only about one thousand—one tenth of one percent—are Lconsidered to be serious pests, and only ten thousand, or one percent, are considered to be even occa- sional pests. So what exactly are the rest of these insect species doing if they are not damaging our crops or sucking our blood? It turns out that in addition to not being pests, they are also engaged in extremely beneficial activi- ties. We are fortunate that many beneficial insects make their home in our region, where they perform important services such as pollination, pest control, and the breakdown of organic matter. Following are profiles of some of the beneficial insects and other invertebrates found in Washington Park Arboretum during recent “bioblitzes” (biological surveying events) coordinated by the University of Washington. There’s a good chance you might encounter some of them in your own backyard, too. Giant western crane fly. Western fairy lady beetle.
