Tynommatidae was formerly considered a subfamily (Tynommatinae) of Schizopetalidae, but has been elevated in rank to family, and includes North American millipedes from the family Schizopetalidae.[3]
Genera
These 12 genera belong to the family Tynommatidae:
gollark: One day quantum computers might even be able to do useful things faster than my phone!
gollark: Still, it's a thing. Definitely a thing.
gollark: We've reached a point where quantum computers can do *some stuff* faster than classical ones, in that while it would be theoretically possible to emulate... Sycamore, or whatever it was, the one Google or someone had for "quantum supremacy" or something... on a supercomputer, it would take several days to do what it did in two minutes.
gollark: Something like that?
gollark: We do have real quantum computers, just not very practical ones.
