Strigamia is a genus of soil centipedes in the subfamily Linotaeniinae, a clade formerly known as the family Linotaeniidae, but now deemed a subfamily within the family Geophilidae. This genus is among the most widespread genera in the order Geophilomorpha. These centipedes are found in temperate parts of the Holarctic region, including much of North America and Eurasia.
