Five new species and numerous locality records of Spirobolida millipedes from Madagascar (Diplopoda, Spirobolida, Pachybolidae) Author Wesener, Thomas text Zootaxa 2024 2024-10-29 5529 3 461 486 http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.3 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.5529.3.3 1175-5326 14022748 716EDF67-C933-484D-911B-4585B11187A6 Genus Eucarlia Brölemann, 1913 Remarks. The status of the genus Eucarlia is still unresolved since the transfer of the four species known from the Seychelles to the Asian genus ( Golovatch & Korsós 1992 ). The variety shown by the different Eucarlia species in their anterior and posterior gonopods ( Golovatch & Gerlach 2010 ) indicates that more than one genus might be hiding behind the name. The species described below is the first record of the genus from Madagascar . The assignment of the new species to Eucarlia is tentative at best, given the unclear definition of the genus. However, as the only other alternative would be the description of a new monotypic genus—already the 16th of the family Pachybolidae known from Madagascar , the species described below is tentatively placed in Eucarlia .
