ZYGENTOMA [Responsible: S.P. de Lima ]

This order is represented by two families.

Lepismatidae

Ctenolepisma longicaudatum Escherich, 1905

Lepisma corticola Ridley, 1890 ; Alvarenga (1962).

Lepisma leai Ridley, 1890 ; Alvarenga (1962).

Remarks. According to Ridley (1890), the specimens described as L. corticola were collected “in rotten wood and under stones in the Capim-Açu trail {Sapate} and the base of the Peak. It also occurred on the mainland at Pernambuco in similar localities”. Apparently, it was described based only on the specimens collected in the island.The single specimen described as L. leai was somewhat damaged during capture ( Ridley, 1890). The two species described from specimens collected in the Fernando de Noronha archipelago were synonymized under the cosmopolitan domestic pest speciesC.longicaudatum by Paclt (1967).

Nicoletiidae

Material examined. + 20 specimens.

Remarks. Several small specimens were collected under stones in Fernando de Noronha and we believe, considering the habitat, that the specimens could correspond to the species previously identified as Machilis by Ridley (1890). This species was quite common under stones in the archipelago.
