Typhloiulus insularis Strasser 1938
Typhloiulus insularis Strasser, 1938 Typhloiulus insularis Strasser, 1938 Typhloiulus (Inversotyphlus) insularis: Strasser 1962 Distribution. Known only from the type locality: Croatia: cave Petričevi on the island of Cres. Remarks. T. insularis was described on the basis of females alone. To prove its validity, Strasser (1938) accurately compared the new species to all previously described species of Typhloiulus. More recently, Makarov & Rađa (2006) (in Makarov et al. 2006) described T. gellianae from the Croatian island of Ugljan, some 70 km SE of Cres. Although occurring on neighbouring islands, the two species can readily be separated morphologically from each other. T. insularis is much smaller (l = 12–13.5 mm vs. 21–26 mm in T. gellianae) and paler (pigmentless vs. yellowish in T. gellianae), and with a rounded subanal scale (vs. subquadrangular in T. gellianae).Published as part of Vagalinski, Boyan, Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2015, A review of the millipede genus Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with a description of three new species from Bulgaria and Greece, pp. 334-362 in Zootaxa 3999 (3) on page 340, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3999.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23401
Typhloiulus bosniensis Strasser 1966
Typhloiulus bosniensis Strasser, 1966 Typhloiulus (Typhloiulus) bosniensis Strasser, 1966 Typhloiulus bosniensis: Ceuca 1992 Distribution. Known only from the type locality: Bosnia and Herzegovina: cave Govednica by Rogatica. Remarks. Strasser (1966) assigned T. bosniensis to Typhloiulus sensu stricto despite the fact that it is missing the intermediate lamella. Though he stated that T. bosniensis fully agreed with the nominotypical subgenus in all other examined characters, the exact systematic position of this species within Typhloiulus remains uncertain.Published as part of Vagalinski, Boyan, Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2015, A review of the millipede genus Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with a description of three new species from Bulgaria and Greece, pp. 334-362 in Zootaxa 3999 (3) on page 337, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3999.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23401

Egonpretneria Strasser 1966
Egonpretneria Strasser, 1966 Figs 1 –18, 85, 89 Diagnosis. Pleurotergites without lateral keels (Figs 1 and 5) and with numerous metazonal warts (Figs 1–8). Macrochaetae very short and bacilliform (Fig. 6). Syncoxite of anterior gonopods with impressive rounded medial lobe (Figs 12 and 16). Posterior gonopods with well-developed, shield-like uniramous lateral coxal processes and with uniramous medial sternal process (Fig. 18). Type species: Egonpretneria brachychaeta Strasser, 1966, by original designation.Published as part of Antić, Dragan, Dražina, Tvrtko, Raða, Tonći, Tomić, Vladimir T. & Makarov, Slobodan E., 2015, Review of the family Anthogonidae (Diplopoda, Chordeumatida), with descriptions of three new species from the Balkan Peninsula, pp. 151-181 in Zootaxa 3948 (2) on page 154, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3948.2.1, http://zenodo.org/record/24029
Typhloiulus carniolensis Strasser 1940
Typhloiulus carniolensis Strasser, 1940 Typhloiulus carniolensis Strasser, 1940 Distribution. Known only from the type locality: Slovenia: Štedl Peak near Železniki in Selška Sora Valley, NW of Škofja Loka. Remarks. Strasser (1940) described this species based on only two females. The description is very detailed and further supported by a side-by-side comparison between T. carniolensis and each of the several typhloiuline species known to occur in Slovenia and its adjacent territories at that time.Published as part of Vagalinski, Boyan, Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2015, A review of the millipede genus Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with a description of three new species from Bulgaria and Greece, pp. 334-362 in Zootaxa 3999 (3) on page 338, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3999.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23401
Typhloiulus uncinifer Strasser 1974
Typhloiulus uncinifer Strasser, 1974 Typhloiulus (?) uncinifer Strasser, 1974 Distribution. Known only from the type locality: Greece: Cephalonia: between Sami and Poros, near the seaside. Remarks. This species was described on the basis of a single juvenile female. Even in the absence of more material, T. uncinifer can be justifiably excluded from Typhloiulus. The species has ozopores opening right on the suture and a characteristically unciform subanal scale. These two characters are not seen in any other species of Typhloiulus and, as Akkari et al. (2011) noted, T. uncinifer may be in fact related to Titanophyllum spiliarum Akkari et al., 2011, of the tribe Brachyiulini, found in a cave in western mainland Greece.Published as part of Vagalinski, Boyan, Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2015, A review of the millipede genus Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with a description of three new species from Bulgaria and Greece, pp. 334-362 in Zootaxa 3999 (3) on page 346, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3999.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23401

Balkanopetalum beskovi Strasser 1973
Balkanopetalum beskovi Strasser, 1973 Figs 79. Type locality: ‘Topchika Höhle bei Dobrostan’. Literature records: Topchika Cave near Dobrostan (Strasser, 1973: 429); Yamata Cave near Dobrostan; Hralupa Cave near Dobrostan; Druzhba Pot hole near Dobrostan (Beron, 1994: 83). Strasser (1973: 429) referred his earlier (Strasser 1969: 145) record of rhodopinum juveniles from Garvanyovitsa Cave near Turen to beskovi, but the identity of these specimens remains uncertain. Material examined (all from Bulgaria): 2 MM, 3 FF, 3 juv., Asenovgrad District, Dobrostan Village, Topchika Cave, 19.02.1997, T. Ivanova leg.; 4 MM, 12 FF (2 MM, 2 FF, ZMUC), same village, Druzhba Pot hole, 26.09.1992, P. Beron leg.; 1 M, 1F, same village, Hralupa Cave, 10.06.1961, G. Bachvarov leg.; several subad., same locality, 24.08.1970, C. Delchev leg.; 1F, 1 subad., same village, Yamata Cave, 17.07.1961, G. Bachvarov leg.; 2 FF, same village, Pirkovskata Cave, 1,200 m alt., clay, 20.10.2001, B. Petrov, V. Beshkov leg.; 2 FF, 1 juv., Mostovo Village, Zmiin burun Pot hole, 980 m alt., 18.04.1993, P. Stoev leg. Diagnosis. This species differs from its congeners by the following combination of characters: The anterior coxal process has a small tooth at its base; the posterior coxal process is straight; the femoroid has a basal tooth; the ovoid plate is thin and sharpened; the distal femoroid process is black, medially incised with two well developed lateral processes; the solenomerite is trifid (Figs 7, 8). The prefemur of male 7th legpair is moderately swollen mesally (Fig. 9). Chaetotaxy, see Table 3. Notes. This species occurs in caves and pot holes in the karst massif of Dobrostan, the central part of the Rhodopi Mts. Beron (1972, 1994) referred to this species as B. beshkovi Strasser, since the name of the person, which it honors is currently transliterated as Beshkov. However, Strasser (1973) transliterated the name as Beškov and in the specific name correctly omitted the diacritical mark over the "s". B. beskovi coexists with typical cavedwellers like Cordioniscus schmalfussi Andreev, 2002 (Isopoda), Rhodopioniscus beroni (Vandel, 1965) (Isopoda), Trichoniscus rhodopiense Vandel, 1965 (Isopoda), Troglohyphantes bureschianus Deltshev, 1975 (Araneae), and Histopona tranteevi Deltshev, 1978 (Araneae).Published as part of Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2003, Systematics, phylogeny and biogeography of genus Balkanopetalum Verhoeff, 1926 (Diplopoda: Callipodida: Schizopetalidae), pp. 1-26 in Zootaxa 272 (1) on page 10, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.272.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/501436
Typhloiulus longipes Strasser 1973
Typhloiulus longipes Strasser, 1973 Typhloiulus (Inversotyphlus) longipes Strasser, 1973 Typhloiulus longipes: Ceuca 1992 Distribution. Bulgaria: cave Belyar near Vratsa (type locality!), cave Zvankova dupka near Chiren (Vagalinski & Stoev 2007). Remarks. This species is so far known from only two water caves in Western Stara planina Mts. It was originally placed in the subgenus Inversotyphlus Strasser, 1962, mainly because of its anteriorly bent promere. By all criteria T. longipes is a very peculiar species, which combines a unique set of both gonopodal and somatic characters, such as reduced but non-uncinate male leg-pair 1, enlarged coxae on male leg-pair 2, a slender and strongly tapering penis, and strongly elongated gonopods with an opisthomere bearing a fine, root-like velum.Published as part of Vagalinski, Boyan, Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2015, A review of the millipede genus Typhloiulus Latzel, 1884 (Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), with a description of three new species from Bulgaria and Greece, pp. 334-362 in Zootaxa 3999 (3) on page 342, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3999.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/23401
