F. Loomis , the well-known specialist on millipeds of the West-Indies and Central America , died in Miami 1 Florida , on July 5 1 1976 , of cardiac complications , at the age of 79. Born in Mertensia , New-York , on December 23 , 1896 , he was exposed to Diplopoda early in life : his uncle G.N.Collins was an early collaborator with O.F.Cook, and Loomis came under the influence of cook when he joined the U.S.Department of Agri­ culture in 1914 • Several of his early papers were co-authored with Cook , and a similarity in philosophy and technique between the two men was evident in Loomis•s writings. Although a botanist and horticulturist by profession , the taxonomy of millipeds occupied his leisure time for many years , and either alone or in company with Cook he was able to collect material in China 1 western United States , the West Indies , and Central America. He was an expert photographer and elegant enlarged photographs illustrated some of his earlier papers. After eight years of residence in Arizona during the 1920's , Loomis was transferred to the u.s. Plant Introduction Station in Miami , where he was thenceforth permanently stationed. During the last 13 years of his professional career he was di­ rector of this facility , and after retirement in 1958 , he maintained a small office-laboratory there where his milliped work was conducted. Except for two taxonomic studies (on american callipodoid and cambaloids millipeds) Loomis's papers were basically faunistic in approach. His major works are complete surveys of the millipeds of Hispaniola and of Panama , and a checklist of the millipeds of Central America, all three indisp.ensable basic references for these regions. Loomis described new milliped taxa in 51 papers , publishing a total of nine new families , 129 new genera , and 525 new species (some in collaboration with other authors). Our personal friendship extended back to 1946 (R.L.H.) , and throuqhout this periode of three decades he remained always a most ~racious an~ helpful colleague. With his passing, systematic Diplopodology suffers a grievous loss, and no one stands ready to take his place. N.B. CAUSEY and R.L. HOFFMAN III I T E M S 0 F 'r-- H -- E N E W · W 0 R L D by· --R. L. HOFFMAN FIRST NORTH AMERICAN CONGRESS OF MYRIAPODOLOGISTS ! On March 20 , 1976, an informal meeting of myriapodologists vas held at Radford C6liege , Radford , Virginia ; the participants being R.M. SHELLEY (Raleigh), W.A. SHEAR (Hampden-Sydney) , A.A. WEAVER (Wooster) and the untersigned. The occasion was taken for discus$ion of subjects of mutual interest , and a short local excursion was· ·made to collect males of a minute Chordeumatoid thought to represent hhe family Tingupidae. Although only persons were involved, this is the greatest· number of myriapodologists ever assembled at one time and place in the western hemisphere , and was considered a great success. A se­ cond annual congress , now being organized by Dr. Shelley , will be held in Raleigh , North Carolina, on March 18-20 ·, · 1977 , and a much larger attendance (10- 12 persons) is expected for this event. "TREATISE ON MYRIAPODOLOGY " (R.L.H.) Garland Publishing, Inc., a New-York company, has undertaken to pu­ blish a series of -1noriographs under the above· general 'title r the i11ili.:.. vidual volumes to appear whenever manuscripts are available. Each is expected to comprise a complete, independant treatment of some asp.2cts of the biology of myriapods , making a reference sui table for begir:- · ning students as well. as for specialists. The initi~l contribution , now in press and expected to appear by June, 1977 , is entitled "Classification of the Diplopoda" and was compiled by thre untersigned who is also general aditor for the series. Inquiries for additional information , addressed to him at Radford College , will be welcomed.

    EXHIBIT I Management Procedures for Archaeological and Historical Sites and Properties on State-Owned or Controlled Lands Management Procedures for Archaeological and Historical Sites and Properties on State-Owned or Controlled Properties (revised February 2007) These procedures apply to state agencies, local governments, and non-profits that manage state- owned properties. A. General Discussion Historic resources are both archaeological sites and historic structures. Per Chapter 267, Florida Statutes, ‘Historic property’ or ‘historic resource’ means any prehistoric district, site, building, object, or other real or personal property of historical, architectural, or archaeological value, and folklife resources. These properties or resources may include, but are not limited to, monuments, memorials, Indian habitations, ceremonial sites, abandoned settlements, sunken or abandoned ships, engineering works, treasure trove, artifacts, or other objects with intrinsic historical or archaeological value, or any part thereof, relating to the history, government, and culture of the state.” B. Agency Responsibilities Per State Policy relative to historic properties, state agencies of the executive branch must allow the Division of Historical Resources (Division) the opportunity to comment on any undertakings, whether these undertakings directly involve the state agency, i.e., land management responsibilities, or the state agency has indirect jurisdiction, i.e. permitting authority, grants, etc. No state funds should be expended on the undertaking until the Division has the opportunity to review and comment on the project, permit, grant, etc. State agencies shall preserve the historic resources which are owned or controlled by the agency. Regarding proposed demolition or substantial alterations of historic properties, consultation with the Division must occur, and alternatives to demolition must be considered.

Zoosystema 23 (3) : 579-589. ABSTRACT Type material of 20 species described in the genus Iulus by Paul Gervais (1837 & 1847) is still preserved in the collections of the Laboratoire de Zoologie-Arthropodes (Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, France). This material, examined here, is related, except a single case, to the tropical millipede orders Spirostreptida and Spirobolida. For eight taxa represented only by females or immatures, it is impossible to class them below the level of family or even order: thus Iulus botta can be placed in Iulida; I. lagurus and I. leucopus to Spirostreptida; I. madagascariensis, I. philippensis, I. roseus and I. sumatrensis in Spirobolida. I. vermiformis is a mixing of Polydesmida and Spirostreptida. Five other taxa were reviewed in the recent past; thus Iulus bipulvillatus Gervais, 1847 is a junior synonym of Remulopygus javanicus (Brandt, 1841) (Harpagophoridae); I.

  • Diplopoda, Spirobolida, Pachybolidae)
    New genus of Pachybolini from Gabon, West Africa 147 International Journal of Myriapodology 2 (2008) 147-154 Sofi a–Moscow A new genus of Pachybolini from Gabon, West Africa (Diplopoda, Spirobolida, Pachybolidae) Henrik Enghoff Natural History Museum of Denmark, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, DK-2100 København Ø, Denmark. E-mail henghoff @snm.ku.dk Abstract Gabolus magister n. gen., n. sp., is described from Gabon, West Africa, and is compared with other mem- bers of the tribe Pachybolini. Th e new genus is very tentatively regarded as sister-group to the ensemble of other genera in the tribe. Key words millipede, Afrotropical, taxonomy, new species Introduction Th e tribe Pachybolini consists of large to very large Afrotropical millipedes. Th e tribe includes one West African genus, Pelmatojulus de Saussure, 1860, three described (Pachybolus Cook, 1897, Hadrobolus Cook, 1897 and Epibolus Cook, 1897) and sev- eral as yet undescribed East African genera, and one genus, Madabolus Wesener & Enghoff , 2008, from Madagascar (Wesener et al. 2008). Although the tribe Pachybolini was formally defi ned by Wesener et al. (2008) it was Hoff man (1962) who laid the foundations for a modern understanding of this group of millipedes by re-describing Pelmatojulus insignis (de Saussure, 1860), type spe- cies of its genus, and pointing out that it might be generically diff erent from the East African Pachybolus tectus Cook, 1897, type species of Pachybolus. Wesener et al. (2008) found that all West African species described in Pelmato- julus and Pachybolus share an unusual and certainly apomorphic character, having 15 or more apical antennal sensilla instead of the usual four.

Th ree new species are described: A. cooki from Sierra Leon, A. mauriesi from the Ivory Coast, and A. demangei from Ghana; additional species referred to the genus in its redefi ned sense are A. erythropus (Lucas, 1858), A. denticulatus (Attems, 1931), A. bidentatus (Demange & Mauriès, 1975), A. gibberosus (Demange, 1971), A. moritzi (Demange & Mauriès, 1975), A. sceptrifer (Demange & Mauriès, 1975), A. serrulifer (Demange & Mauriès, 1975), and A. tubulatus (Demange, 1972), all but the fi rst are new combi- nations resulting from their transfer from Benoitesmus. Th e random expression and distribution of various go- nopod characters makes defi nition of species-groups diffi cult with present knowledge of this diverse genus. Key words Diplopoda, Polydesmida, Chelodesmidae, Anisodesmus, West Africa Introduction Th e polydesmidan fauna of West Africa was initially described, very succinctly and without illustrations, in several papers published in 1896 by O. F. Cook who had personally collected many of the new elements in Liberia. Since he fully intended to provide extended monographic treatment for most of the new taxa he proposed, it is unclear why Cook resorted to publication of the preliminary accounts which validated scores of names while leaving them unrecognizable.

    Bol. S.E.A., nº 28 (2001) : 67—80. CHECKLIST OF THE MILLIPEDS (DIPLOPODA) OF HISPANIOLA A. R. Pérez-Asso 1 and D. E. Pérez-Gelabert 2 1 Investigador Asociado, División de Entomología, Museo Nacional de Historia Natural, Plaza de la Cultura, Santo Domingo, República Dominicana. 2 5714 Research Associate, Department of Entomology, National Museum of Natural History, Washington, D.C. 20560. USA. Abstract: The present catalogue lists all 162 species of diplopods, living or fossil, so far known from Hispaniola. Treatment of higher taxonomic categories follows Hoffman's (1980) proposals. For each species considered there is information on synonymy, holotype and paratype localization, collector, date, country (Haiti or Dominican Republic) and geographic distribution. Included are some annotations and species with uncertain taxonomic status are indicated. All bibliographic references on the taxonomy of the island's diplopods are included. Keywords: Millipeds, Diplopoda, fauna, Hispaniola, Dominican Republic, Haiti. Checklist de los milípedos (Diplopoda) de Hispaniola Resumen: El presente catálogo lista las 162 especies de diplópodos, vivientes o fósiles, hasta ahora conocidos de la Hispaniola. El tratamiento de las categorías taxonómicas superiores sigue las propuestas por Hoffman (1980). Para cada especie tratada se incluye información sobre sinonimia, localización del holotipo y paratipos, colector, fecha, país (Haití o República Dominicana) y distribución geográfica. Se incluyen notas aclaratorias y se indican aquellas especies cuya situación taxonómica es incierta. Se presentan todas las referencias bibliograficas que tratan la taxonomía de los diplópodos de la isla. Introduction The first important contribution to the knowledge of Hispaniola's its complex geological history. The uniqueness of millipeds in diplopods was made by Ralph V.

  • Diplopoda — Taxonomic Overview
    CHAPTER 16 DIPLOPODA — TAXONOMIC OVERVIEW BY HENRIK ENGHOFF, SERGEI GOLOVATCH, MEGAN SHORT, PAVEL STOEV AND THOMAS WESENER There is no widely accepted consensus about the classification of Diplopoda. The following account basically follows the arrangement by Shear (2011), deviations from this are specified. All currently recognized families are mentioned, and more or less exact numbers of known genera and species in each family are given, as well as the known geographical distribution. With more than 1800 recognized genera (1868 according to Shear, 2011) mentioning and characterizing them all would require a volume in itself. In the following treatment, which is exhaustive down to the families, all genera are mentioned only for some, mainly smaller orders, whereas only a selection of genera are mentioned for the large orders Polydesmida, Chordeumatida, Julida and Spirostreptida. Likewise, the amount of morphological detail varies greatly between orders, and this chapter cannot in general be used as an identification manual. For those genera which are listed, the (approximate) number of known species and the geographical distribution are given, and as a rule the name of at least one species per listed genus is included. Information on habits is included to a limited extent, e.g., if the members of the family/genus are cavernicolous. Only Recent taxa are treated here. For fossils see Chapter 14. Class DIPLOPODA de Blainville in Gervais, 1844 [HENRIK ENGHOFF] Terrestrial mandibulate and tracheate arthropods with adult body size 1.4-350 mm. Cuticle rarely soft and covered by modified setae (Polyxenida), usually calcified, form- ing an inflexible, rarely flexible (Glomeridesmida and Polyzoniida), exoskeleton.
