Two New Species of Symphyla from the Krakatau Islands and the Ujung Kulon Peninsula (Myriapoda: Symphyla: Scolopendrellidae, Scutigerellidae)
Abstract
Symphyla have been collected from the Krakatau Islands and the Ujung Kulon Peninsula on Java for the first time. Two species were found, both new to science: Symphylella javanensis in Scolopendrellidae and Millotellina krakatauanus in Scutigerellidae. They are described and figured. The dispersal of the latter species to the Krakataus is discussed.
