Editor's comment There are a number of genera of Geophilomorpha containing species which could possibly be littoral but, unfortunately, published location/habitat detail (usually in the original description) is insufficient for certainty. Such genera include Gosothrix, Bimindyla, Nesonyx, Ityphilus & Diphyonyx. [details]
