the course of about 10 minutes in the leaf mold accumulated in the bot- 

 tom and on the sides. No specimens were found in the adjacent 

 woods. 



Remarks. — As far as color pattern goes, this species is like A. Virginia 

 Chamberlin from Pittsylvania County, Va., and the new species de- 

 scribed in this paper as A. picta from Mountain Lake, Va. However, 

 according to the description, Virginia has the keels orange and the 

 median spots yellow, a reversal of the pattern in the other two species. 

 The median spots of antrostomicola tend to merge into the yellow of 

 the keels, whereas in none of my specimens of picta does this condi- 

 tion obtain. Besides, the gonopod of antrostomicola^ although simi- 

 lar to that of ficta^ presents several differences. 



The specific name of this species refers to the habitat in which the 

 types and only known specimens were collected. 



APHELORIA ASPILA Chamberlin 



Apheloria aspila Chamberlin, Bull. Univ. Utah, vol. 30, No. 2, p. 10, fig. 33, 1939 

 (Soco Falls, N. C). 



Virginia : Grayson County : Mount Kogers, east side near top, RLH 

 No. &-3047-2b (one male). 



Previously known only from the type locality, which is near Waynes- 

 ville, Haywood County, N. C. This new record extends the range 

 northward in the southern Blue Ridge to the Balsam Mountains. A. 

 aspila, like Boraria Carolina, which is also known only from Soco 

 Gap and Momit Rogers, may be found to be widespread in western 

 North Carolina. 



APHELORIA CORIACEA (Koch) 



Fontaria coriacea Koch, System der Myriapoden, p. 141, 1847 ("Pennsylvania"). 



Virginia: Albemarle County: Stony Point, RLH No. 10-3047-le 

 (1 male) ; Alleghany County: 2 miles northwest of Clifton Forge, 

 RLH No. 6-1447-la (3 males, 4 females) ; Augusta County: Sherando 

 Lake, near Lyndhurst, RLH No. 8-1547-lb (many males and females 

 collected by Carr) ; Roanoke County: Roanoke, RLH No. 7-547-1 

 (1 male collected by Wright). 



The occurrence of this form at Clifton Forge is interesting. It 

 is common at and aromid a large, deserted sawmill, but only once in 

 many years' acquaintance with the region have I seen a specimen in a 

 different place. This exceptional creature was across a small ridge 

 from the sawmill and no more than a thousand yards away from it. 



At Roanoke, where I have seen fragments of this form, it seemed 

 to be common, of all places, in pine woods on a dry shale monadnock. 

 Bleached specimens could be found under rocks and logs, and Mr. 

 Wright (who later secured a living specimen nearby) informed me
