Pselliodidae is a family of small centipedes, identical and closely related to house centipedes.

Genera and species

(As of 2017), the Integrated Taxonomic Information System recognizes the following genera and species in Pselliodidae:[2]

  • Gonethella Chamberlin, 1918[3]:165
    • Gonethella nesiotes Chamberlin 1918[3]:165–166
  • Gonethina Chamberlin, 1918[3]:166
    • Gonethina fijiana Chamberlin 1920[4]:80–81
    • Gonethina grenadensis Chamberlin 1918[3]:166–167
  • Sphendononema Verhoeff, 1904[5]:259–261
    • Sphendononema chagualensis (Kraus, 1957)
    • Sphendononema guildingii (Newport, 1845)[6]:356
    • Sphendononema rugosa (Newport, 1844)[7]:95

In contrast, Gregory D. Edgecombe (de) wrote this family comprises "at least three species in a single genus", only mentioning the genus Sphendononema and the species S. guildingii and S. rugosa.[8]
