Thereuopodina is a genus of centipedes in the family Scutigeridae. It was described by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff in 1905. [1] [2]
There are three valid species: [2]
Lithobius is a large genus of centipedes in the family Lithobiidae, commonly called stone centipedes, common centipedes or brown centipedes.
Scolopendra is a species-rich genus of large tropical centipedes of the family Scolopendridae.
KarlWilhelm Verhoeff was a German myriapodologist and entomologist, specialising in myriapods as well as woodlice and to a lesser extent insects.
Scutigeridae is a family of centipedes that are known as house centipedes. It includes most of the species of house centipedes, including Scutigera coleoptrata and Allothereua maculata.
Pachymerium is a genus of centipedes in the family Geophilidae. Centipedes in this genus range from 2 cm to 8 cm in length and have 37 to 79 pairs of legs. The Chilean species Pachymerium armatum measures only 20 mm in length and has only 37 leg pairs, the minimum number observed in this genus. The Russian species P. minutum is also notable for its small size and its modest number of legs. This genus contains the following species:
Robert Latzel was an Austrian myriapodologist and entomologist who published a series of pioneering works on millipedes, centipedes, and allies. His collection of myriapod specimens, today housed in the Natural History Museum of Vienna, includes many type specimens. His monographs on the myriapods of the Austro-Hungarian Empire were the first comprehensive treatments of the large region's centipede and millipede faunas. He named nearly 130 taxa of millipedes and over 40 centipede groups, as well as four taxa each of pauropods and symphylans. His work on millipedes pioneered the use of gonopods in millipede classification and species recognition. At least three authors have honored Latzel by naming a genus Latzelia.
Thereuopodina tenuicornis is a species of centipedes in the family Scutigeridae. It is endemic to Sri Lanka.
Geophilus is a large, heterogeneous genus of soil centipedes in the family Geophilidae largely considered to be synonymous with Brachygeophilus. It is a mostly holarctic genus characterized by a claw-shaped ultimate pretarsus, anterior porefields, complete or nearly complete coxo-pleural sutures at the prosternum, and incomplete chitin-lines. Centipedes in this genus range from 1 cm to 8 cm in length. The generic name first appeared in Brewster's Edinburgh Encyclopaedia in 1814 as Geophilus electricus.
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.
Sepedonophilus is a genus of three species of centipedes in the family Geophilidae. It is endemic to Australia, and was first described by Austrian myriapodologist Carl Attems in 1909. Centipedes in this genus range from about 2 cm to 5 cm in length and have 49 to 79 pairs of legs.
Steneurytion is a genus of centipedes in the family Geophilidae. It was first described by Austrian myriapodologist Carl Attems in 1909.
Mecistocephalus collinus is a species of centipede in the Mecistocephalidae family. It is endemic to Australia, and was first described in 1937 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Mecistocephalus mater is a species of centipede in the Mecistocephalidae family. It is endemic to Australia, and was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Allothereua bidenticulata is a species of centipede in the Scutigeridae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Allothereua caeruleata is a species of centipede in the Scutigeridae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Allothereua serrulata is a species of centipede in the Scutigeridae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Parascutigera sphinx is a species of centipede in the Scutigeridae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
Thereuopodina queenslandica is a species of centipede in the Scutigeridae family. It is endemic to Australia. It was first described in 1925 by German myriapodologist Karl Wilhelm Verhoeff.
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.
