Chileana is a genus of soil centipedes in the clade Linotaeniidae and family Geophilidae[1] found in southern Chile.[2] It currently has only one species, C. araucanensis.[1] Females of this species are about 30mm long, with a pale yellow body and a red head; bearing 12–15 pleural pores; long, tapering antennae with sparse basal sections and rather hairy distal sections; and a labrum with four median tubercles bearing a few cilia on the sides. Males have 10 pleural pores, thick ultimate legs armed with claws, and 43 leg pairs.[3]
Taxonomy
Chileana araucanensis was originally named Linotaenia araucanensis Silvestri, 1899, and it was later moved to the genus Araucania Chamberlin, 1956.[4] However, Araucania Chamberlin was found to be a junior homonym of Araucania Pate, 1947, and thus was renamed Chileana Özdikmen, 2009.[5][1]
