Abstract
This paper presents a preliminary checklist of the Iraqi chilopod fauna based on the literature data critically revised and additional fresh material. The checklist includes 27 species of 13 genera, 8 families, and 4 orders. Eight species are known from a single locality and/or only from specimens of a single sex. The history of studies of Chilopoda fauna from Iraq is provided; some faunistic records are critically revised.
