In Memoriam

These pages present accounts of the scientific contributions and personal recollections of myriapodologists whom we have known, as well as great myriapodologists of the more distant past. Many of these obituaries were first published in the CIM Bulletin, written by CIM members in memory of their colleagues, and often their friends.

Please let us know if you have any open obituaries so that we can add them here.
