Asanada is a genus of centipedes in the subfamily Scolopendrinae. It has thirteen known species, which usually grow between 25–35 mm (0.98–1.38 in) in length.[1][2] It can be distinguished from the genus Cormocephalus (= Cupipes) by having smooth (as opposed to punctured) anal pleurae, but is otherwise quite similar in appearance.[3] The type species of the genus is A. brevicornis (by monotypy), the type specimen of which was collected in Kulu, India.[3][4][5][6]
