THE MYRIAPODA OF NORTH AMERICA. 147 



ln<liit<(t "Southern United ^tiitrn" the nuinher of ;mtcmial joints 

 thirty and the number of scuta with their posterior angles produced 

 u fir<> or .s- /./"- 1 have regarded N]>ini)>fN. tranamarinus and iiun'daj as 

 identical. 



Although there is sonic doubt as to the exact locality of this species, 

 nevertheless 1 am strongly inclined to believe that Say's specimens 

 were from the Southern States, for out of the nineteen species noticed 

 by Say, only one is mentioned as occurring north of Virginia, south of 

 which State f orficatus does not extend. 



This species should still retain Say's name.
