Geophilus insculptus was once considered a species of soil centipede in the family Geophilidae found across temperate Europe, especially Britain and Ireland.[1][2][3] The name G. insculptus was deemed to be a junior synonym of G. alpinus,[4][5] which in turn was deemed to be a junior synonym of G. impressus.[6][7]
