As the symphylan fauna of the United States becomes better known, it is very probable that species will be found belonging to all of the genera now known. From California alone I have collected specimens belonging to the following genera: Scutigerella, Hanseniella, Symphylella, Geophilella, and Symphylellopsis.1 Hilton (1931) has reported the genus Scolopendrellopsis from California, and has also named two new genera, Pseudoscutigerella and Scolopendrellina. The former I feel certain is a synonym of Geophilella the latter I have not yet recognized.
