Resumo

New samplings using pitfall traps and active capture in the Sierra de Aitana, which includes the highest peak in the province of Alicante (1,558 m a.s.l.), resulted in the collection of 93 specimens belonging to 22 species of myriapods (Myriapoda, Diplopoda, Chilopoda) and two terrestrial isopods (Crustacea, Oniscidea), representing 12 families and 16 genera. With these findings, the number of known taxa of these groups for Aitana increases two-fold, from 15 to 33 species, of which the number of diplopods increases from seven to 13, chilopods from two to 13, and terrestrial isopods from five to six, while symphyla remains at one. Seven species are first records for the province of Alicante, and six of these are also first records for the Valencian Community. Faunal studies are the first step for the protection of local fauna, its endemic species, and the unique enclaves they inhabit.
