''Floridobolus'' is a genus of spirobolidan millipedes commonly known as Florida scrub millipedes containing three described species: ''Floridobolus penneri'', ''F. orini'', and ''F. floydi''; the latter two described in 2014. All three species are endemic to Florida scrub habitat of peninsular Florida, and ''F. penneri'' is considered a critically imperiled species by NatureServe. Prior to the description of ''F. orini'', the genus (then only a single species) was considered the sole member of the family Floridobolidae, named by William T. Keeton in 1959, however studies in 2014 have argued that ''Floridobolus'' does not represent a distinct family but rather is a basal member of the family Spirobolidae, representing the subfamily Floridobolinae, and tribe Floridobolini.〔 ==Description== Species of ''Floridobolus'' range from long with 45 to 50 body rings or segments as adults. The body is not purely cylindrical, but rather is widest around the 12th or 13th rings, and tapers towards the head and telson (rear end). The body is oval in cross section whereas most other related millipedes are circular in cross section. The body color ranges from slate gray to olive, with some species more uniform while others having lighter yellowish bands on the rear margin of body rings.〔〔
