Ballophilidae is a monophyletic group of centipedes belonging to the order Geophilomorpha and superfamily Himantarioidea.[1][2] Authorities now dismiss this group as a family, citing phylogenetic analysis, and instead refer to this clade as Ballophilinae, a possible subfamily within the family Schendylidae.[2][3] The number of legs in this clade varies within species and ranges from 37 to 113 pairs of legs.[4] Two species in this clade can have as few as 37 leg pairs, Ballophilus pallidus[5] and Leucolinum trinidadense,[6] and one species, Ityphilus grandis, can have as many as 113 pairs.[7] Species in this clade tend to have more leg-bearing segments and greater intraspecific variability in this number than generally found in the family Schendylidae.[8] Four species in this clade are notable for their small sizes: L. trinadadense (reaching only 9 mm in length),[6] Caritohallex minyrrhopus (10 mm),[9] B. pallidus (11 mm),[5] and Taeniolinum panamicum (11 mm).[10][11]
