Abstract
The scolopocryptopine centipedes from Fiji Islands are revised. Two species belonging to the genus Scolopocryptops - S. aberrans (Chamberlin, 1920) and S. melanostoma Newport, 1845 - are recorded. Scolopocryptops aberrans is redescribed and illustrated for the rst time. Scolopocryptops miersii jiensis is a junior subjective synonym of S. aberrans, and S. verdescens is a junior subjective synonym of S. melanostoma. An emended diagnosis for S. melanostoma is presented.
