INTRODUCTION
East Kazakhstan Region is a one of the 14 regions of Kazakhstan. It occupies the easternmost part of Kazakhstan, along both sides of the Irtysh River and Lake Zaysan. The region occupies diverse range of geographic and climatic regions with Altai Mountains in the east and the eastern margins of Kazakh steppes in the west of the region (Vilesov et al., 2009).
The first data about centipede fauna of Kazakhstan published by Sseliwanoff (1881). This researcher described Lithobius loricatus Sseliwanoff, 1881 on Semipalatinsk Region (now East Kazakhstan Region). Since 1881 to 2006 have been no published date on centipedes of this territory. Last studies (2006-2010) added several new species from Altai and Tarbagatai Mountains: L. (Monotarsobius^) insolens Danyi et Tuf, 2012, L. (M.) tarbagataicus Farzalieva, 2006, L. princeps Stuxberg, 1876, L. proximus Sseliwanoff, 1880, L. sulcipes (Zalesskaja, 1978; Farzalieva, Zalesskaja, 2002; Farzalieva, 2006; Tuf, 2007; Tuf et al., 2010).
I. H. Tuf (2007) mentioned about 3 species which he preliminary determined as Lithobius cf. juniperius Zalesskaja and 1978, L. cf. stejnegeri (Bollman, 1893). Besides 3 undetermined species of Lithobius and 1 of Escaryus Cook et Collins, 1891 are recorded in this paper (Tuf et al., 2010). Later, one of undetermined species of Lithobius was described as L. (M.) franciscorum (Danyi, Tuf, 2012).
Thus, to date only 9 species of centipedes are known from East Kazakhstan Region and 3 taxa are not determined. The centipede fauna of East Kazakhstan Region is still remain insufficiently studied.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The present paper based on material collected by senior author in June 2016. Material was collected in Zyryanovsk (number 1 on Map) and Katon-Karagay (number 2 on map) Districts of East Kazakhstan Region in different habitats: gardens and indoor, open hand-made grounds, steppe.

This species has hitherto been recorded in southwestern part of Siberia (Tomsk Region and Altai Province in similar habitats — open fields, hand-made grounds and flower greenhouse) (Nefediev et al., 2016b).

ORDER SCUTIGEROMORPHA
Family SCUTIGERIDAE
Scutigera coleoptrata (Linnaeus, 1758)
MATERIAL EXAMINED. 1 #, 8 $$, East Kazakhstan Region, Katon-Karagay District, Ulken-Naryn Village, garden, under stones, indoor, about 400 m a.s.l., 24.06.2016; 2 $$, same place, 500 m N from Ulken-Naryn Village, steppe, about 400 m a.s.l., 24.06.2016.
DISTRIBUTION. Is a common synanthropic species distributed worldwide by humans. It recorded in South and North Americas (Canada, USA, Mexico, Guatemala, Argentina and Chile, Uruguay), Africa (from Egypt to South Africa), Australia (including Tasmania), New Zealand), Europe (from Spain to Russia (including Siberia), Asia (from Georgia and Azerbaijan to Iran, from South Korea and Japan, Vietnam and Taiwan) (Lewis, 1981; Stoev & Geoffroy, 2004; Farzalieva, 2008; Faundez, 2011; Zapparoli, 2013; Nefediev et al., 2016a).
This species has hitherto been recorded in neighboring territories of southwestern Siberia, Russia (Altai Province, Altai Republic, Kemerovo and Novosibirsk Regions) (Nefediev et al., 2016a).
CONCLUSIONS
As a result, at least 17 species from 3 genera and 4 families and 3 orders are known to occur in East Kazakhstan. Five species are recorded in Kazakhstan for the first time: four cosmopolitan synanthropic species:
Lamyctes (Lamyctes) emarginatus (Newport, 1844), Lithobius (Monotarsobius) crassipes L. Koch, 1862, L. (L.) forficatus (Linnaeus, 1758), Scutigera coleoptrata (Linnaeus, 1758) and obviously uncommon L. (M.) steppicus Farzalieva et Zalesskaja, 2002.
The centipede fauna of most adjacent regions are less studied than East Kazakhstan Region. At example, only 4 species of centipedes are known from Altai Province and Republic of Altai; 5 species are recorded on Mongolian part of Altai (Aimaks Gobi-Altai, Khovd, Bayan-Ulgii) and 6 species are known from Xinjiang (China) (Loksa, 1965, 1978; Nefediev, 2001; Nefediev et al., 2016a; Ma et al., 2014).
More quantity of centipede species are known from Almaty Region of Kazakhstan (20 species) (Sselowanoff, 1881; Lignau, 1929; Titova, 1969, 1972a,b; Zalesskaja, 1978; Eason, 1997; Farzalieva et al., 2004; Farzalieva, 2006).

NEW DATA ON THE CENTIPEDE
But new findings and discoveries of new species are expected on the territory of East Kazakhstan because
the natural biotopes in this area are still very poorly studied.
