The list of threatened species of millipedes contains a list of species of arthropods from the classes of the sea-footed (Chilopoda) and two-legged (Diplopoda), united in the superclass Myriapoda , which have been assigned the Vulnerable species (IUCN) conservation status.

) or β Critically Endangered species ,
) Currently, the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species contains 93 rare and endangered species of millipedes, of which 19 are vulnerable, 37 are endangered and 37 are on the verge of extinction. 3 more species of bipedal centipedes appear in this list as completely extinct (category β Extinct species β, Extinct species ,

- Aphistogoniulus aridus
- Aphistogoniulus corallipes is an endemic to the island of Madagascar , where it lives only in the lowland tropical forest of Manantanteli, a small isolated area of ββthe forest preserved in the southeast of the island. This forest is not protected and quickly disappears due to intensive deforestation and transformation of the territory for agricultural needs, which leads to a constant decrease in the number of species. The entire area of ββthe range of this species of millipedes is about 10 kmΒ² [3] .
- Aphistogoniulus hova
- Aphistogoniulus infernalis - endemic to the island of Madagascar, lives in the lowland and mountain rainforests of Grand Lavasoa, Sainte Luce and Isaka-Ivondro, growing on the Andohahela mountain range in the southeast of the island. Although these forests are officially protected, in fact, the local population is cutting and burning them, which leads to a permanent decrease in their area. The total area of ββthe species range is about 890 kmΒ² [4] .
