【 摘 要 】

An isolated population of Scolopendra cingulata was found in NW Italy, at 550 m above sea level in the locality La Brunetta in the municipality of Susa (Turin). The site is largely covered by relict Mediterranean vegetation, suggesting the relict origin of this new S. cingulata population. These data further underline the particularity and the importance of this area for conservation.
