chamberlin: myriopoda of the Australian region. 175 



Anal scutum not equalling the valves. The latter moderately compressed 

 at inner borders ectad of which they are roughened. 

 Feet of male with tarsal pads. 

 Number of segments, fifty-five. 

 Length (male), 62 mm.; width, 5.6 mm. 



Recognizable among related Australian forms in the different char- 

 acters of the male gonopods. The ventral branch of the posterior 

 gonopods is long, curving back along the sternite of the segment to 

 its caudal end, expanding clavately distad as usual in Rhinocricus, 

 the distodorsal angle acute, the other rounded. Dorsal or lesser 

 branch slender, scarcely surpassing the middle of the other branch.

I am unable clearly to understand Brolemann's account as to the 

 localities he attributes to typical falcatus and his subspecies scobinula. 

 He states (Op. cit., p. 125) that " the Gayndah specimens have been 

 considered as a distinct subspecies for which the name of scobinula 

 subsp. nov. is proposed" and on p. 128 that "There is, therefore, 

 hardly any doubt that the Gayndah specimens belong to at least a 

 subspecies different from the Cairns form." The pertinence of the 

 reference to Cairns is not clear. He may have had typical falcatus 

 from that locality, though Silvestri's types were from Gayndah.
