(2016) Predatory behavior of three centipede species of the order Scolopendromoprha (Arthropoda: Myriapoda:
Chilopoda).
There was a very low abundance of
Chilopoda compared to other groups.
Among these taxonomic groups, only
Chilopoda, Isoptera, and Blattodea were not considered as generalists by Machado et al.
However based on biomass, Arachnida were the dominant prey group (45.32%), followed by Insecta (41.40%),
chilopoda (6.54%), Gastropoda (4.81%) and Malacostraca (1.92%).

A synopsis of the North American centipedes of the order Scolopendromorpha (
Chilopoda).
Class
Chilopoda was more abundant in habitat I, in all studied heaps seven species were found, with Lithobius forficatus Linnaeus 1758 and L.
Organisms were classified into functional groups based on ecological processes that involve soil fauna: soil engineers = ants, earthworms, Isoptera; detritivores = Dermaptera, Diplopoda, Coleoptera, Blattodea, Isopoda, Acari, Diptera; herbivores = Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Lepidoptera larvae, Mollusca, Phasmatodea; and predators = Araneae,
Chilopoda, Opiliones, Pseudoscorpionida, Mantodea.
La mayor densidad fue del phylum Arthropoda, dentro del cual la clase Insecta fue la que presento mayor densidad (65,1%), seguida de la clase Diplopoda (23,5%),
Chilopoda (6,1%), Malacostraca (3,3%), Arachnida (1,3%); Clitellata del phylum Annelida (0,4%) y Adenophorea del phylum Nematoda (0,3%) fueron las que presentaron menor densidad.
Crustacea dominate as predators (Cheng 1976), while a range of centipedes (Class
Chilopoda), symphylids (Class Symphyla), pauropods (Class Pauropoda), millipedes (Class Diplopoda), scorpions (Order Scorpiones), microwhip scorpions (Order Palpigradi), pseudoscorpions (Order Pseudoscorpiones), mites and ticks (Order Acari) and spiders (Order Araneae) have also been recorded as living in the intertidal region worldwide (Roth & Brown 1976).
Sampling strategies for millipedes (Diplopoda), centipedes (
Chilopoda) and scorpions (Scorpionida) in savanna habitats.
