Abstract
The myriapod fauna of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic (Azerbaijan) comprises at least 20 species: 12 species from eight genera, seven families, and three orders of Chilopoda, and eight species from eight genera, five families, and three orders of Diplopoda. Family Henicopidae Pocock, 1901, genus Lamyctes Meinert, 1868, and the species L. emarginatus (Newport, 1844) (Chilopoda) and Syrioiulus armeniacus Evsyukov, Golovatch, Antić, 2021 (Diplopoda) are newly recorded for the fauna of Azerbaijan. Lithobius erythrocephalus cronebergii Sseliwanoff, 1881, Omobrachyiulus caucasicus (Karsch, 1881), Syrioiulus armeniacus Evsyukov, Golovatch, Antić, 2021, and Brachydesmus kalischewskyi Lignau, 1915 are illustrated; the remarkable intraspecific variability of Cryptops caucasius Verhoeff, 1934 and Lithobius cf. coloratus Sseliwanoff, 1881 is described and illustrated. The history of studies on the Myriapoda of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic is also summarized.
