Hello,
Pedetontus unimaculatus belongs to the subfamily Petrobinae. As it has no scales on the flagellum, which is a uniform color.
Here rings on flagella testify to the presence of scales and hence the subfamily Machilinae.
That may be Machilis sp. or Lepismachilis sp.
Do you have a better picture of the eyes?

Hello Amaryllid,
Thank you for your response. I do not have a better picture on the eyes.
