Inodesmus is a genus of millipedes in the family Haplodesmidae, first described by Orator F. Cook in 1896. The type species is I. jamaicensis. This genus exhibits a disjunct distribution, with species found in Colombia, Jamaica, New Caledonia, and the Australian states of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia.[1][2]
Taxonomy
[edit]Assignment to the family Haplodesmidae is currently uncertain. Agathodesmus, described by Silvestri in 1910,[3] and Atopogonus, described by J. Carl in 1926,[4] are regarded as junior synonyms of Inodesmus.[1]
