DeSisto JW. 2015. Centipedes (Chilopoda) and millipedes (Diplopoda) of Acadia National Park: A first survey

From official abstract: "The results of a millipede and centipede (Myriapoda) survey in Acadia National Park are summarized. The survey took place during the 2015 annual BioBlitz coordinated by the Schoodic Institute, and 160 myriapod specimens were collected by 55 citizen scientists on 18 July 2015. Eight millipede and eight centipede species were collected, with the introduced species Lithobius forficatus, Lithobius crassipes, Cylindroiulus caeruleocinctus, and Ophyiulus pilosus being the most abundant. When combined, introduced species had a much higher relative abundance than native species."
