89. Orthoporus (?) indus (Pal. Beauvois). 



Julus indus Pal. Beauvois, Ins. Afrique Amer., 1805, p. 154, pi. 6, f. 2;' Pocock, 



Journ. Linn. soc. London, 1894, 24, p. 506. 

 Julus beauvoisi Gervais, Ins. apter., 1847, 4, p. 191. ^ 



Julus beauvoisi, proposed by Gervais as a substitute for /. indus,

 author from Martinique, as pointed out by Pocock (Loc. cit., p. 507). 



Habitat. — Santo Domingo.^' ^ 



Anethoporus, gen. nov. 



Differing from Orthoporus in having the seminal style of the male 

 gonopods wholly naked, not issuing from a vase-shaped lamina, and 

 very long, curving behind the gonopods and ending on the opposite 

 side, thus crossing the other style. The gonopod ends distally in an 

 auriculiform membrane which is bent so as to be concave on the ectal 

 side and presents a secondary smaller fold on the ectal side; between 

 the two folds in the type is a short rod or styliform process. 



Genotype. — A. clarki, sp. nov.
