Notes  Distribution: Probably one of the most widespread chilopod species in the world. There are very few records, all from coastal shingle, from Great Britain. Rather eastern distibution in Scandinavia. [details]

Ecology: A terrestrial species also occurring on seashores. Apparently quite tolerant of seawater and so likely to be dispersed by rafting. [details]
