Himantariidae is a monophyletic family of centipedes in the order Geophilomorpha and superfamily Himantarioidea,[1] found almost exclusively in the Northern Hemisphere.[2] The number of leg-bearing segments in this family varies within as well as among species and ranges from 47 to 181.[3] These centipedes are very elongated with a high mean number of trunk segments (often greater than 100) and great variability in this number within species.[4] The maximum number of legs recorded in this family (181 pairs) appears in the species Chomatobius bakeri.[5][6] The minimum number of legs recorded in this family (47 pairs) appears in the species Garriscaphus oreines,[7][8] This family contains these genera:

  • Acrophilus
  • Bothriogaster
  • Californiphilus
  • Causerium
  • Chomatobius
  • Diadenoschisma
  • Geoballus
  • Gosiphilus
  • Gosothrix
  • Haplophilus
  • Himantariella
  • Himantarium
  • Meinertophilus
  • Mesocanthus
  • Nesoporogaster
  • Nothobius
  • Notiphilus
  • Notobius
  • Polyporogaster
  • Pseudohimantarium
  • Stigmatogaster
  • Straberax
  • Thracophilus
