. Brimleyana. Zoology; Ecology; Natural history. Centipede Subfamily Plutoniuminae 91 resembling the conditions in T. californiensis and T. erythrocephalus (compare Fig. 19 with Figs. 13 and 40). Ecology. As with T. posticus, T. spinicaudus occurs primarily in moist deciduous litter. It is occasionally found in predominantly pine litter, and rarely under logs, loose wood debris, and large rocks. Distribution. As shown in Fig. 32, the distribution of T. spinicaudus is more restricted than that of the eastern population of T. posticus, and the available records cluster into two segregated areas:

As shown in Fig. 32, the distribution of T. spinicaudus is more restricted than that of the eastern population of T. posticus, and the available records cluster into two segregated areas: the southern Blue Ridge Province of North Carolina and the southern periphery of Virginia, extending eastward and southward into the Piedmont Plateau and Fall Zone of the Carolinas, Georgia, and Alabama, and westward onto the Cumberland Plateau of Tennessee and Alabama; and from the Central Lowlands of northeastern Illinois and central Iowa southwestward to the Ozark and Ouachita provinces of southwestern Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma, extending onto the Coastal Plain in southeastern Arkansas (Fig. 31). Specimens were examined as follows; counties are listed alphabetically for states where the species is known from more than five counties, and complete data are provided for states where T. spinicaudus is known from five or fewer counties. Each state listing begins with a general description of anticipated Fig. 31. Distribution of T.
