Adenomeris is a genus of pill millipede of the family Glomeridae and the subfamily Doderiinae.
== Description == Adenomeris millipedes have a trunk composed of 13 tergites, without pigmentation. Like the genus Gervaisia, they possess gnathochilarium and a more developed second tergite. Their tergites are not ridged. While they do not have eyes, their Tömösvary organ is very developed, being larger than the antennal sockets and as wide as it is long. The head is angular in shape.
