Thirteen centipeds, eleven millipeds and one symphylan species are reported from the
Galápagos islands. Six centipeds (Cryptops beebei Chamberlin 1924, Nannopodellus
purpurescens Chamberlin 1924, Pachymerium pereirai Shear & Peck 1992, Pectiniunguis
albemarlensis Chamberlin 1914, Pectiniunguis kraussi Shear & Peck 1992, Schendylops
nealotus (Chamberlin, 1950)) and one milliped (Nesodesmus insulanus Chamberlin, 1914) are
probably endemic to the archipelago. Their distribution within the archipelago is given
together with their preferential vegetation zones and altitudinal range of occurrence on the
islands. The world distributions of the introduced species are also given.
