There are three subspecies; Scolopendra angulata angulata (Newport, 1844), Scolopendra angulata explorans (Chamberlin, 1914), and Scolopendra angulata moojeni (Bücherl, 1943). The latter subspecies is excluded by some sources.{{Cite web |title=Scolopendra angulata |url=https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/734768-Scolopendra-angulata |access-date=2022-03-26 |website=iNaturalist |language=en}} S. s. explorans was originally classified by Chamberlin as Scolopendra explorans, and was only proposed a subspecies of S. angulata by Bücherl in 1942 .{{Cite journal |last=Chagas-Jr |first=Amazonas |last2=Chaparro |first2=Elisa |last3=Jiménez |first3=Sebastián Galvis |last4=Triana |first4=Hernán Darío Triana |last5=Flórez |first5=Eduardo |last6=Seoane |first6=José Carlos Sícoli |date=2014-03-14 |title=Scolopendra angulata subsp. explorans Chamberlin 1914 |url=https://zenodo.org/record/5057331}}
