Fauna Europaea
The Cryptopidae are a family of scolopendromorph centipedes. Cryptopids are blind (lacking ocelli) and possess 21 pairs of legs as adults.[1] The genus Cryptops is the numerically largest in the family, comprising over 150 species worldwide.[2]
Classification
The four genera, with at least 184 species, are:[3]
Cryptops Leach, 1815
Paracryptops Pocock, 1891
Tonkinodentus Schileyko, 1992
Trigonocryptops Verhoeff, 1906
The genera Plutonium and Theatops, formerly classified in the cryptopid subfamily Plutoniuminae, are now placed in the recently elevated family Plutoniumidae.[4]
