Tribe Orthomorphini Brölemann, 1916

The most members of the family Paradoxosomatidae can easily be distinguished by the distinct morphological characters, some tribes and somegenera in this extremely species-rich polydesmid group might not be characterised based on a combination of morphological characters. Srisonchai et al. (2018a) proposed to split the genus Desmoxytes in its traditional sense into several genera and reinstated the genus Hylomus . The genus Hylomus , however, still exhibits diverse morphological characteristics.
