Escaryus kirgizicus

Escaryus kirgizicus is a species of soil centipede in the family Schendylidae.

[1] This species is known only from high mountains and is notable for being found at one of the highest altitudes (3,500 m) recorded for any centipede in the order Geophilomorpha in Central Asia.

She based the original description of this species on five specimens (three females and two males).

The posterior margin of the labrum features a relatively deep concave arch in the middle and 19 or 20 large denticles.

One pair of lappets extend from the lateral margins of the appendages of the first maxillae.

The sternite of the ultimate leg-bearing segment has the shape of a wide trapezoid.
