From An overview of the extant genera and subgenera of the order Scolopendromorpha (Chilopoda): a new identification key and updated diagnoses, Schileyko et al 2020:

The closely related genus Dinocryptops Crabill, 1953 (present in Edgecombe & Bonato 2011: 404) was formally placed in subjective synonymy under Scolopocryptops by Edgecombe et al. (2012: 777): “… morphology-based analyses suggest that recognition of Dinocryptops leaves Scolopocryptops as a paraphyletic grouping ... The phylogenetic analyses described below strongly support the paraphyly of Scolopocryptops with respect to Dinocryptops, using morphological, molecular or combined data and we have accordingly placed Dinocryptops in subjective synonymy of Scolopocryptops”.
