On abundance, phenology and natural history of Geophilomorpha from a mixedwater inundation forest in Central Amazonia (Chilopoda)

Five terricolous species of Geophilomorpha were collected in a mixcdwater inundation forest near Manaus/AM, Brazil: Rihautia (Schizoribautia) di!ficilis Pereira et al., 1995, Rihautia (S.) centralis (Silvestri, 1907) (Gcophilidae), Schendvlurus continuus Pereira et al., 1995, S.janauarius Pereira ct...
