Abstract
Between 1 January 1958 and 31 December 2005, 62 genusand 8 family-group names were proposed for extant taxa in the class Chilopoda. All are catalogued herein along with two earlier generic names in the Geophilomorpha that have not been addressed. Accounts include citations and components for family-group names, and citations, genders, type-species and localities, and number of components for genus-group names; all but one typifications are by original designation. The species names “birket-smithi” and “nüeschi,” type-species of Phanothereua (Scutigeromorpha) and Asanadopsis (Scolopendromorpha), respectively, are emended to “birketsmithi” and “nueshi” to comply with articles in the Code prohibiting hyphens and diacritics in modern spellings. An alphabetical index is provided.
