The genus Schileyko, 2018 was described based on a specimen identified as Helix (Chloritis) pseudomiara Bavay & Dautzenberg, 1909. We concluded that the examined specimen is not that species, but Crosse & Fischer, 1863. Therefore, (1) the type species of must be replaced with ; (2) the species Helix (Chloritis) pseudomiara must be re-allocated to the genus ; (3) the erroneous treatment of the genus by Schileyko (2007) needs to be corrected through the description of a new genus, . based on Sowerby I, 1841. In addition, Möllendorff, 1898 is treated as a synonym of , and further information on the genitalia of (?) (Benson, 1856) is presented.

The extant genera and subgenera of the order Scolopendromorpha are critically reviewed and provided with updated diagnoses and a new identification key; the most recent revisions of scolopendromorph genera are concisely summarised. Rhoda Meinert, 1886 and Cryptops (Chromatanops) Verhoeff, 1906 are suggested to be a junior synonyms of Scolopendropsis Brandt, 1841 and Cryptops (Cryptops) Leach, 1814, respectively. The subgeneric status is formally fixed for Cryptops (Paracryptops) Pocock, 1891 and Cormocephalus (Campylostigmus) Ribaut, 1923; the taxonomic status of the former genus Kanparka Waldock Edgecombe, 2012 is discussed.

Although known for more than a century from the Himalayas and other mountain ranges in India, the first Diplommatina from Nepal were reported not before 1997 (Kuznetsov Schileyko 1997).
