Easonobius is a genus of centipedes in the family Henicopidae. The name honours British myriapodologist Edward Holt Eason. It was described by palaeontologist Gregory Edgecombe in 2003. [1] [2]
There are two valid species: [2]
Himantariidae is a monophyletic family of centipedes in the order Geophilomorpha and superfamily Himantarioidea, found almost exclusively in the Northern Hemisphere. The number of leg-bearing segments in this family varies within as well as among species and ranges from 47 to 181. These centipedes are very elongated with a high mean number of trunk segments and great variability in this number within species. The maximum number of legs recorded in this family appears in the species Chomatobius bakeri. The minimum number of legs recorded in this family appears in the species Garriscaphus oreines, This family contains these genera:
Himantarium is a genus of centipedes in the family Himantariidae. Centipedes in this genus range from 10 cm to 20 cm in length, have from 87 to 179 pairs of legs, and are found in the Mediterranean region. Both the minimum and the maximum number of legs in this genus appear in the species Himantarium gabrielis, which exhibits a striking degree of intraspecific variation in leg number.
Aspidopleres is an African genus of centipedes belonging to the family Oryidae. Centipedes in this genus range from 11 cm to 12 cm in length, have 87 to 105 pairs of legs, and are found in southwest Africa.
Tygarrup is a genus of centipedes in the family Mecistocephalidae, found mainly in southeast Asia and from the Seychelles to Hawaii. Although species in this genus can have either 43 or 45 leg-bearing segments, most of these species have 45 leg pairs. An undescribed Tygarrup species found in the Andaman Islands has 43 leg pairs. Centipedes in this genus range from 2 cm to 6 cm in length. Tygarrup javanicus is one of the smallest of the mecistocephalid species and has become an invasive in greenhouses in Europe.
Craterostigmus crabilli is a species of small centipede in the order Craterostigmomorpha. It is endemic to New Zealand.
Tasmanophilus is a genus of two species of centipedes, in the family Zelanophilidae. It was described by American biologist Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1920. Centipedes in this genus are found in Australia and New Zealand.
Pachymerellus is a genus of two species of centipedes, in the family Geophilidae. It was described by American biologist Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1920.
Tuoba is a genus of 17 species of centipedes, in the family Geophilidae. It was described by American biologist Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1920.
Zelanophilus is a genus of three species of centipedes, in the family Zelanophilidae. It was described by American biologist Ralph Vary Chamberlin in 1920.
Australoschendyla is a genus of centipedes in the family Schendylidae. It was described by R. E. Jones in 1996. Centipedes in this genus range from 1 cm to 2 cm in length, have 41 to 47 pairs of legs, and are found in west Australia.
Paralamyctes is a genus of centipedes in the family Henicopidae. It was described by British zoologist Reginald Innes Pocock in 1901.
Paralamyctes cammooensis is a species of centipede in the Henicopidae family. It was first described in 2004 by palaeontologist Gregory Edgecombe.
Paralamyctes ginini is a species of centipede in the Henicopidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 2004 by palaeontologist Gregory Edgecombe.
Paralamyctes subicolus is a species of centipede in the Henicopidae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 2004 by palaeontologist Gregory Edgecombe.
Pilbarascutigera is a monotypic genus of centipedes in the family Scutigeridae. It is endemic to Australia, with the type locality being Broome in the Kimberley region of far north Western Australia. It was described by Gregory Edgecombe and Lauren Barrow in 2007. Its sole species is Pilbarascutigera incola.
Maoriella is a genus of centipedes in the family Geophilidae. It was described by Austrian myriapodologist Carl Attems in 1903. Species in this genus are found in New Zealand, Australia, and Tahiti.
Easonobius humilis is a species of centipede in the Henicopidae family. It is endemic to New Caledonia, a French overseas territory in Melanesia. It was first described in 1923 by French entomologist Henri Ribaut.
Easonobius tridentatus is a species of centipede in the Henicopidae family. It is endemic to New Caledonia, a French overseas territory in Melanesia. It was first described in 2003 by palaeontologist Gregory Edgecombe.
Ballonema is a monotypic genus of centipedes in the family Scutigeridae. It was described in 1904 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff. Its sole species is Ballonema gracilipes Verhoeff, 1904.
Podothereua is a monotypic genus of centipedes in the family Scutigeridae. It was described in 1905 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff. Its sole species is Podothereua insularum Verhoeff, 1905.
