The only previously known Mesozoic fossils of the chilopod order Geophilomorpha are two species from the Late Jurassic and Late Cretaceous, both known from single specimens that cannot be assigned with precision to a family. Four specimens from the Late Cretaceous (earliest Cenomanian) amber of Burma include three that can be identified as conspecific, described here as Kachinophilus pereirai gen. nov. sp. nov. These specimens preserve greater morphological detail in comparison with other fossil geophilomorphs: the form and fine features of the head, the maxillary complex, the trunk sternites with associated glandular pores and the ultimate pair of legs defend the assignment of the species to the extant family Geophilidae, and most probably to a derived subgroup including well-known extant genera such as Ribautia Br\ölemann, 1909. Confocal laser scanning microscopy supplements examination under incident and transmitted light to document details of high taxonomic relevance in the head and the forcipular segment. The modern appearance of this species and its membership among deeply nested extant clades are consistent with molecular estimates that most of the diversity of crown-group Geophilomorpha originated before the Late Cretaceous.

Ribautia lewisi sp. nov. (Chilopoda: Geophilomorpha, Geophilidae) is herein described and illustrated after the holotype (male), paratypes (males and females), and additional non type specimens from Northeastern Argentina (Mesopotamian region). The new species is characterized by having a cluster of coxal organs in each coxopleuron of the ultimate leg-bear-ing segment and a claw-like pretarsus in the ultimate legs, bearing a very unusual feature, in that the internal limbs of ten-torium have a conspicuous tooth-shaped sclerotized process directed inward. R. lewisi sp. nov. is only the second confirmed record of the genus Ribautia from Argentina, the other being R. jakulicai Pereira, 2007 from Northwestern re-gion of the country (Yungas biogeographical province).

Ribautia williamsi sp. nov., a new dwarf geophilomorph centipede from the Lower Urubamba Region, Peruvian
Amazonia, is described and illustrated based on the holotype female. The new species is characterized by having
the coxal organs grouped in clusters (three of these in each coxopleuron of the ultimate leg-bearing segment) and
ventral pore-fields present along all the body; these two combined traits being shared by five other Neotropical
species currently included in the genus Ribautia Br\ölemann, 1909, i.e. R. centralis (Silvestri, 1907) (from Colombia
and Brazil), R. difficilis Pereira, Minelli \& Barbieri, 1995 (from Brazil), R. montana Kraus, 1954 (from Peru), R.
peruana (Verhoeff, 1941) (from Peru), and R. titicacae (Turk, 1955) (from Peru). The new taxon is differentiated
from the aforementioned species by the low number of leg-bearing segments and small body length; it is included
in a key which will enable the identification of all known Neotropical members having coxal organs grouped in
clusters. R. williamsi sp. nov. is the 14th species of Ribautia recorded from Peru.

A new genus Diphyonyx is proposed here for a previously unrecognised lineage of geophilid centipedes. It is distinct from other geophilids in its unique combination of morphological characters, including the peculiar shape of the pretarsus of the legs on the anterior part of the trunk. The type species D. conjungens (Verhoeff, 1898), comb. n., is redescribed in detail and its geographical distribution updated (Balkan Peninsula, Anatolia, Crimea). Included in Diphyonyx are also D. sukacevi (Folkmanov\á, 1956), comb. n., and D. garutti (Folkmanov\á \& Dobroruka, 1960), comb. n., both from southern Russia. D. garutti is raised here to species rank.
