SPECIES INCLUDED. — Below is a checklist of the species currently attributed to Glyphiulus , arranged in alphabetical order (after Jeekel 2004). In contrast, Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin (1997) referred to only 16 or 17 species as belonging to this genus, depending on synonymy.

1. G. adeloglyphus Zhang & Li, 1982 , described from Xingping, Guangxi Province, China; still only known from the original description ( Zhang & Li 1982).

2. G. anophthalmus ( Loksa, 1960) , described as Trogloglyphus anophthalmus Loksa, 1960 from Nyu-Jie Cave near Pulung (= Fulong, near the frontier with Vietnam), Guangxi Province, China; still only known from the original description ( Loksa 1960).

3. G. balazsi ( Loksa, 1960) , described as Trogloglyphus balazsi Loksa, 1960 from Lodjen (= Luodian, or Longping), southern Guizhou Province, China; still only known from the original description ( Loksa 1960).

4. G. capucinus Attems, 1938 , described from Mt. Bana, Danang Province, central Vietnam ( Enghoff et al. 2004); still only known from the original description ( Attems 1938).

5. G. formosus ( Pocock, 1895) , described as Cambalomorpha formosa Pocock, 1895 from Hong Kong, China; known from the original description ( Pocock 1895) and a partial redescription ( Mauriès 1970).

6. G. granulatus ( Gervais, 1847) , described as Iulus (recte: Julus ) (Glyphiulus) granulatus Gervais, 1847 from Mauritius and Réunion islands, Indian Ocean; currently known as a pantropical “tramp” species from Hawaii, Hong Kong, Marquesas, Society Islands, Cook Islands, Samoa, Loyalty Islands and New Caledonia in the Pacific Ocean, from the Mascarenes, Seychelles and Comoro Islands in the Indian Ocean, and from St. Helena in the Atlantic Ocean ( Jeekel 2004). Cambala nodulosa Butler, 1876 , from Rodrigues Island, Mascarene Islands, Formosoglyphius tuberculatus Verhoeff, 1936 , from Taiwan, and Glyphiulus vulgatus Zhang & Li, 1982 , from Longzhou, Guangxi Province, China, are junior subjective synonyms of this species (see below).

7. G. javanicus Carl, 1911 , described from Passaroean, Java, Indonesia; still only known from the original description ( Carl 1911).

8. G. lipsorum Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 1997 , described and only known from a cave not in Hubei Province, China, as reported originally (Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin 1997), but in Guangxi Province ( Fig. 30 View FIG ).

9. G. mediator Attems, 1938 , described from Mt. Bana, Danang Province, central Vietnam ( Enghoff et al. 2004); still only known from the original description ( Attems 1938).

10. G. melanoporus Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 1997 , described and only known from a cave near Guilin, Guangxi Province, China (Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin 1997).

11. G. pulcher ( Loksa, 1960) , described as Octoglyphus pulcher Loksa, 1960 from Nyu-Jie Cave near Pulung (= Fulong, near the frontier with Vietnam), Guangxi Province, China; still only known from the original description ( Loksa 1960).

12. G. quadrohamatus Chen & Meng, 1991 , described from several caves in the Zhenning Bouyzu Miaozu Autonomous County, Guizhou Province, China ( Chen & Meng 1991).

13. G. rayrouchi Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 1997 , described and only known from Hei Yan Cave near Maguan, Guizhou Province, China (Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin 1997).

14. G. recticullus Zhang & Li, 1982 , described and still only known from Qinyuan, Zhejiang Province, China ( Zhang & Li 1982).

15. G. septentrionalis Murakami, 1975 , described from Okinawa Island, Ryukyus, Japan ( Murakami 1975), but apparently introduced there from continental China, given that G. multicarinus Zhang & Li, 1982 , described from near Guilin, Guangxi Province, China ( Zhang & Li 1982), is its junior synonym (see below).

16. G. siamensis Mauriès, 1983 , described and still only known from Doi Sutep, northern Thailand ( Mauriès 1983). Enghoff (2005) records further material from the type locality.

17. G. superbus Silvestri, 1923 , described from Dalat, Lamdong Province, central Vietnam ( Attems 1938), later recorded from Kampot, Cambodia ( Attems 1953), although the latter record needs confirmation ( Enghoff et al. 2004). The carinotaxy formula as given in the original description is somewhat ambiguous (Silvestri 1923) and difficult to interpret (see key below).

18. G. vietnamicus Mauriès, 1977 , described and only known from a cave in Ke Bang karst, Quang-Binh Province, Vietnam ( Mauriès 1977; Enghoff et al. 2004).

19. G. zorzini Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin, 1997 , described and still only known from Anjia Yan Cave, Shuichang County, Guizhou Province, China (Mauriès & Nguyen Duy-Jacquemin 1997).
