DIPLURA View in CoL [Responsible: J.A. Rafael and S.P. de Lima ]
The only species of Diplura recorded from the archipelago is probably a misidentification, since the species was described from Mexico.Except for the original record, no other specimens of this order were collected in Fernando de Noronha.
Mixojapyx saussurei ( Humbert , 1868), misidentification?
Iapyx saussurii: Kirby (1890); Alvarenga (1962).
Remarks.“A single specimen of what I believe to be a young example of this little animal was obtained under a stone in the Capim-Açu trail {Sapate} woods” ( Ridley, 1890). It is doubtful that the specimen was correctly identified. According toReddel (1985) this genus is widespread in North America and M.riggii Silvestri, 1948 is the only species reported from South America . Adult specimens from the Fernando de Noronha archipelago need to be collected and studied in order to confirm or correct this species identity.

Presently this is the richest order in the Fernando de Noronha archipelago with 40 families and 134 species recorded. The 108 new records presented here indicate that the group is still under-collected. Most of the records are of synanthropic species and no endemic species were identified so far.
