Genus Hyleoglomeris Verhoeff, 1910

Type species. Hyleoglomeris multilineata Verhoeff, 1910: 248 , by subsequent designation.

Remarks. Hyleoglomeris is a species-rich genus with ca. 100 species widely distributed from Europe to East Asia ( Golovatch et al., 2006). Only eight species have been recorded from Vietnam, three from the southern part, two from the central region, and three from northern part of the country (see the list above). Of these, three are troglobiotic, and live in caves ( Golovatch et al., 2006; Golovatch et al., 2013).

The genus Hyleoglomeris Verhoeff, 1910 was not originally assigned to a tribe, but Mauriès (1971) then placed it into Trachysphaerini Mauriès, 1971 . Currently, this taxon is in the subfamily Doderiinae ( Wesener, 2015: 380) .
