Dicellophilus is a genus of soil centipedes in the family Mecistocephalidae.[1] This genus was introduced by the American biologist Orator F. Cook in 1896 to contain the species D. limatus,[2] which he explicitly designated as the type species.[3] This genus contains four species and is notable for the highly disjunct geographic distribution of these species.[1]
