Scolecophidia adalah kelompok ular-ular yang bentuk dan ukurannya sangat mirip dengan cacing.^[3] Semua ular ini hidup di dalam tanah (fossorial). Mata ular ini hampir tidak berguna, badannya licin, panjang rata-rata sampai 10 cm.^[4] Ular-ular ini tersebar luas di seluruh wilayah tropis di semua benua.^[5]

Scolecophidia terdiri dari lk. 400 spesies yang telah diberi nama, tersebar pada lima suku: Anomalepididae (ular-buta primitif, 18 spp), Leptotyphlopidae (ular kenur, 116 spp), Typhlopidae (ular buta sejati, 257 spp), Gerrhopilidae (ular buta Indo-Malaya, 16 spp), dan Xenotyphlopidae (ular buta moncong-bulat, 1 spesies yang dideskripsi dari Madagaskar).^[6] Di samping itu, masih banyak lagi yang belum dideskripsi; setidaknya ada 25 spesies baru dari Karibia yang menunggu dikonfirmasi.^[6] Tiga suku yang terakhir (Gerrhopilidae, Typhlopidae, dan Xenotyphlopidae) termasuk kedalam superfamilia Typhlopoidea.^[7]

Nama umum: Ular kawat, ular buta, ular-cacing.^[8]
