Apart from the scutigerid centipede, all the other myriapods featured are almost unknown and cannot be identified to species. Millipedes of the family Pyrgodesmidae are locally represented by three genera, each with one species. The order Siphonophorida is locally represented by the family Siphonophoridae and one species, Siphonophora longirostris. However, it is uncertain if this name is applicable to the example featured here. Thereuopoda longicornis seems to be the only species of scutigerid centipede recorded from Singapore. It has a wide distribution throughout the Indo-Australian Archipelago, and in Singapore, is found largely in forests. Five species of the centipede genus Mecistocephalus have been recorded from Singapore but without the physical specimen, the specific identity of the pictured individual is unlikely to be ascertained. The known diversity of myriapod taxa in Singapore was recently compiled by Decker (2013)
