SOME NEW SPECIES OF NORTH AMERICAN MYRIAPODS.* 

 BY CHARLES HARVEY BOLLMAX. 



Thefollowing new species are described from specimens in the museum 



of the Indiana University and my own collection. Six of these are 

 from Bloomin^ton. Indiana, thus making 18 new species \vhich have 

 been described from that locality. Three others were found in a very 

 small collection made at Fort Suelling, Minnesota. 



The types of the new species are in the museum of the Indiana Uni- 

 versity and specimens of Scolioplanes ruber and Lithobiiis cardinalis, 

 , and pall us have been sent to Dr. Anton Stuxberg, of Gothen- 



burg, Sweden.

* This paper was found among the effects of the late Charlea II. I'.ollman. It con- 

 tains full descriptions of ten nr\\ forms of Myriapods. Uriel' diagnoses of nine of 

 these Species have already been published in the American N'alnralNt, Volume \\i.

 It seems desirable that these fuller descriptions should he published in order to en-
