Selenocheir sinuata is a species of flat-backed millipede in the family Xystodesmidae, endemic to Northern California.

[1][2][3][4] The Species was first described by Rowland M. Shelley in 1994 based on samples collected by J. S. Buckett and M. R. Gardner in 1966[5] Selenocheir sinuata often has a banded color pattern with black metaterga and reddish to orange/yellow tergites.

The color on the tergites is also sometimes incomplete with the paranota and central portion of the tergites having color and the mid portions to either side black.

[5] Populations of S sinuata are found in the foothills bordering the northern portions of the Sacramento Valley from Humboldt county east to Shasta county and south to El Dorado county.
