the spinas of the distal endite. (The Kaslimir specimens appear to have only 2 such tuber- 

 cles.) According- to Daday (in it mentioned by Sars) there are 2 sjiines on the under side of 

 the last postpedigerous segment. Tiiese cannot be made out nn the Kashmir specimens, though 

 (piite possibly l^ecause of their pdor preservation. Cercopods of 9 straight, ]i(iinted and 

 setiferous; those of S longer, strongly curved inward, and setiferous on the greater part of 

 the outer margin. On the inner margin they are provided with spines which continue to, 

 and a little around, the tips.

Eleven pedigerous, 9 postpedigerous segments, the last always shortest. Head in i sim- 

 ply rounded in front, or with a frontal process. Second antenna of $ triarticulate, with distal 

 joint cheliform, a curved, chitenous process projects more or less ventrally from the juncture 

 of the ba.sal and middle joints. Legs with 1 epite. Cercopods movably articulated with the 

 last abdominal segment (except in S. scaliif). Ovisac cylindrical, usually elongate. Only 

 1 genus, which is found in all continents except South America.
