Description
Additions to our knowledge of North American millipeds, and changes to their classification, have been made since Charles H. Bollman's "Catalogue of the Known Myriopods of North America and Mexico" that an up-to-date checklist has been desired. Work thus far on our milliped fauna has been mainly descriptive, but the time now seems ripe for synthesis and evaluation of the information at hand. It is hoped that this compilation will stimulate and facilitate the work of other students, for much remains to be done, both to fill the gaps in our knowledge and to clarify the taxonomy, distributions, and ecological relationships of this relatively neglected group of arthropods. References are cited not only in the original description, but also literature with an illustration or other such information regarded as important, and also the place in which the binomial here adopted was first used.
