Arrup is a genus of centipedes in the family Mecistocephalidae, native to Europe and Asia as far as Japan. Centipedes in this genus feature small telopodites on the second maxillae, the head and forcipular segment are elongate, the clypeus is almost completely areolate, and the poison glands in adult males are often deep inside the forcipules. These centipedes range from 1 cm to 5 cm in length.[1] All species in this genus have 41 leg-bearing segments.[2][3] Most are soil-dwellers but Arrup akiyoshiensis is a troglobiont.[4]
