AL(W) | AR(W) | [thread=52691]AZ[/thread] | [thread=50829]CA[/thread] | [thread=52555]FL[/thread] | [thread=51385]IA[/thread] | IL(W) | IN(W) | [thread=52498]KS[/thread] | MI(w) | [thread=52580]MO[/thread] | [thread=52741]NV[/thread] | [thread=54369]OK[/thread] | [thread=52518]OR[/thread] | [thread=51732]TX[/thread] | [thread=51856]WA[/thread] | [thread=51253]WI[/thread]

note: some states are only available on my website, those are marked with a (W)

i got sick of updating each state with the new index. i figured by the time i was done i would have had to do 50+49+48+...+3+2+1 updates =P

so all the state centipede threads will be indexed through here from now on, with a link at the top to this thread :)

Scolopendromorphae species count:
Code:
AL -  7 -  3
AR -  7 -  3
AZ -  5 -  2
CA -  7 -  2
FL -  9 -  0      *********2
IA -  2 -  1
KS -  5 -  3
MO -  8 -  2      ********3**
NV -  7 -  3
OK -  8 -  2      ********3**
OR -  4 -  0
TX - 11 -  2      ***********1**
WA -  3 -  1
WI -  2 -  0
first column = state abbreviation
second col = count of species actually present
third col = count of species that are *close*... admittedly very subjective :)

added a "chart" comparing the species counts for the completed states

who would have thought Missouri would have so many?

i am in the process of making a website. over the last year and a half i've posted a lot of stuff i've researched on AB and other forums, and now it is becoming too difficult, or impossible to reliably update all my posts. i figure this way all my information is in one consolidated place, and updating one place should be relatively simple.

i'm not going to remove any data from any forums, but i am no longer going to update posts, per se

eventually my website will be a superset of all the stuff i've posted in forums :)

What does the fourth column mean (the column with the asterisks and the numbers)?

thanks guys. it will probably be pretty quick to finish as the more i did the faster i got. in some senses it is similar to a like, data sift/processing i would do at work.

11 more to go, apparently
