Cryptops parisi; Henia illyrica; Pleurogeophilus herzegowinensis; Stenotaenia linearis; Strigamia
herzegowinensis; and Schendyla carniolensis) in situ reveals that the mothers guard their eggs and
hatchlings with either the dorsal or the ventral surface outward. The change in brooding posture
coincides with the evolution of sternal gland secretion in most geophilomorphs (united as
Adesmata). Furthermore, Pleurogeophilus, Stenotaenia, and Schendyla, represent genera for which
no previous data were available on brooding",
