Scutigera rubrilineata (Newport, 1844) View in CoL

Material.

1 specimen (as rubrolineata ); ZMB 3834; “Ceylon” [Sri Lanka]; collector and date not recorded. Thirteen Verhoeff slides (nrs. 3065-76); “Ceylon”.

Remarks.

The Sri Lankan material here was presumably assigned to Cermatia rubrolineata , described by Newport from 'India Orientali’; the status of which is currently uncertain (P. Stoev pers. comm., 2017). In Chilobase it is suggested that this species might be conspecific with Thereuonema microstoma (Meinert, 1886).
