The first record of Scutigera coleoptrata (Linnaeus, 1958) (Chilopoda: Scutigeromorpha, Scutigeridae) in the Perm krai (Middle Urals)

The house centipede Scutigera coleoptrata (Linnaeus, 1758) has a cosmopolitan range due to anthropogenic introduction. In Russia, this species is found in the European part and Siberia, while in the Urals, the confirmed records have so far been limited to the southern part of the region. A previously published record about the presence of this species in the Perm Krai [Kozminykh, 2016] was based only on the personal comment by a third person. The first confirmed data on the occurrence of the house centipede S. coleoptrata in the Perm Krai is provided. All records were made in anthropogenic habitats in the city of Perm. In addition to adult specimens, juveniles were also spotted at the collection site. Images of morphological features to confirm the species identification are given.
