Abstract

The fauna of the millipede family Fuhrmannodesmidae in the environs of Manaus is currently known
to comprise 13 species (all keyed) from seven genera, including Phaneromerium minutum n.sp., P.
distinctum n.sp., P. latum n.sp., Fuhrmannodesmus rhinoceros n.sp., Schizotelopus amazonicus n.sp.,
Brachycerodesmus latior n.sp., Adisia hilaris n.gen., n.sp., and Moojenodesmus wellingtoni n.sp. Reassessment of the generic classification of the family within the Neotropical realm, made possible in part through
a revision of type material of Cryptogonodesmus clavidives SILVESTRI, 1898, the type-species of
Cryptogonodesmus SILVESTRI, 1898, from Venezuela, has allowed to rectify some generic diagnoses and
species transfers. The genera Brachycerodesmus CARL, 1914, Giustoella KRAUS, 1960,and Schizotelopus
VERHOEFF, 1941, are revalidated, and the genus Olmodesmus KRAUS, 1954, is synonymized under
Phaneromerium VERHOEFF, 1941 (syn.n.!). A brief classificatory and phylogenetic outline is provided
for all nine acknowledged fuhrmannodesmid genera (all keyed) populating South America south of
Panama.
