Sogonidae Geophilidae is a family of soil centipedes in the superfamily Geophiloidea and the order Geophilomorpha.

[3][4] In 2014, a phylogenetic analysis based on morphological and molecular data found this family to be polyphyletic.

[3] To avoid this polyphyly, authorities dismissed the families Aphilodontidae,[5] Dignathodontidae,[6] Linotaeniidae,[7] and Macronicophilidae,[8] which are now deemed to be junior synonyms for Geophilidae.

[10] Species in this family are characterized by mandibles with a single pectinate lamella.

[12][13] In the order Geophilomorpha, only two species include centipedes with fewer leg pairs, both of them in the family Schendylidae.
