Observed this centipede genus Dicellophilus under a log.
"American species Dicellophilus anomalus(Chamberlin, 1904) and Dicellophilus limatus(Wood, 1862) still remain poorly known, as they have been recorded only rarely, and published accounts on their external morphology are largely incomplete. Both occur in the south-western part of North America (California and Oregon)."

A very unexpected find, at first I thought this was the more common Pachymerium ferrugineum, but the forcipules weren't quite right. As it turns out, this is Nannarrup hoffmani, which was first described from Central Park in New York City. As far as I know, this is only the second record of this species, and a new state record for the species (and family) in Virginia. The species is introduced from elsewhere, despite its description from North American specimens. Last year, Tsukamoto et al described two additional species in the genus in an excellent paper, available here: https://zookeys.pensoft.net/article/83946/.
I collected 9 specimens by digging holes and sifting the soil, and specimens were anywhere between 2 and 12 inches deep. This specimen was about 8 mm long and may be a juvenile.

Not quite sure what this is, but I dissected it from inside of a native centipede (Nadabius pullus) that was collected in May 2005. Documented parasites of lithobiomorph centipedes include Tachinids (Loewia) and Proctotrupids (Phaneroserphus), but I'm not sure if either of those are what I've got here. The parasite is about 5 mm long and 1.5 mm wide and was taking up the whole body cavity between segments 8-12. Parts of its body were sticking out of the spiracles of the centipede before dissection. Any help in narrowing this thing down would be appreciated! I'm assuming an arthropod based on what typically infests lithobiomorphs, but even that could be wrong.
