telopodite of the male gonopod. Differs from hansonia and separanda 

 in the considerably stouter nature of the telopodite. 



Description: Length of male holotype, 41 mm.; width, 9.5 mm.; 

 length of female allotype, 44 mm.; width, 11 mm.; length of other 

 male, 46 mm.; width, 11 mm. 



CoUum subellipsoidal, closely resembling initialis, the posterior 

 edges of paranota curved more noticeably forward than in most 

 species of the genus, ends of paranota narrowly rounded, caudolateral 

 corners curved rather abruptly; paranotal swellings present but weak; 

 strong ridges along cephalic margins of paranota. 



Paranotal swellings distinct on segment 2 and all succeeding seg- 

 ments. Segment 2 and all succeeding midbody segments, including 

 9th, rather square; paranota of segments 16-18 bluntly triangular. 



Sternum of 3d pair of legs with usual processes; sternum of 4th legs 

 with very weak traces of processes; sterna of 5th and 6th legs smooth. 



Coxal armature moderate. 



Male gonopods of medium size (about 2.1 mm. in telopodite arc 

 length and 1.9 mm. in arc width); completely simple in form; curved 

 gradually mesiad, then more abruptly dorsad, end curving somewhat 

 laterodorsad ; half of postcingular portion between cingulum and 

 abrupt bend much broader than half beyond bend ; cingulum located 

 at point on arc about midway between point of initial mesial curva- 

 ture and abrupt bend dorsad; precingular portion of telopodite and 

 postcingular portion subequal. Prefemoral spine moderate. 



Color: Dorsum dark brown, paranota red, underparts tan; last two 

 joints of legs pink. 



Type locality: McMinnville, Warren County, Tenn. 



Type specimens: Collected by Leslie Hubricht, May 21, 1951. 

 Male holotype and female allotype in the U. S. National Museum. 



Other distribution records: 



Tennessee: Hamilton County: Signal Mountain, July 22, 1956 (1 &), Hoff- 

 man. Marion County: west fork of Pry or Cove, 2 miles northeast of Jasper, 

 June 27, 1957 (2 c?, 1 9), Hubricht. 



Discussion: I take great pleasure in naming this species for Mr. 

 Leslie Hubricht whose extensive collecting of millipeds has played an 

 important role in the extension of our knowledge of the diplopod 

 fauna of North America. Without the specimens of Brachoria col- 

 lected by Mr. Hubricht, the present study would have been impossible.
