ABSTRACT

Certain groups of invertebrates are becoming mainstreamed in conservation activities in KwaZulu-Natal,

particularly groups that have many species endemic to the province and that are confined to small distribution

ranges. As a result of this there is a need to assign common (English) names where these are unavailable.

A list of scientific names and standardised common names is presented for species of millipede occurring

in KwaZulu-Natal.
