MYRIOPODA FROM BURMA 797 



produced beyond the level of the hinder border of the tergite; 

 the keels that do not bear pores are small and quadridentate , 

 the posterior tooth being the largest and tuberculiform. The 

 transverse sulcus faint, visible on segments 5-18. Inferior crest 

 somewhat swollen and present about as far as the 15"' somite. 

 Caudal process triangular, stout at the base, with apex truncate 

 and bitubercular ; and sternite normal, the tubercles small. 



Legs hairy, short, stout, claw small but not covered with hairs ; 

 trochanter much longer than the coxa but at least one third 

 shorter than the femur, which about equals the tarsus; patella 

 and tibia subequal , a little shorter than trochanter. 



(/. Sternal process of the 5"^ somite well developed, erect, 

 ovate not bifid. Copulatory feel of moderate length, but stoutish, 

 simple, terminating in two slender curved processes, the lower 

 of which constitutes a sheath for the upper (fig. 4a). 



Length about 14.5 mm. 



Locality Pla-po on Mt. Mooleyit (Tenasserim) ; collected by 

 Sig. L. Fea. 



In addition to the above described species, which is its type, 

 the genus Eudasypeltis contains the species from Morgui which 

 I described as Strongylosoma setosum (Journ. Linn. Soc. Zool. 

 XXIV, p. 320). The latter may, however, be recognised by its 

 much larger size, slenderer copulatory feet and differently toothed 

 keels. 



Genus Anoplodesmus , nov. 



Allied to Strongylosoma, Brandt, but differing in possessing a 

 narrow cylindrical tail and in having the keels of the 2°** seg- 

 ment practically on a level with those of the P^ and 3'"'*. In 

 this latter feature it resembles Leptodesmus of Saussure (of 

 which the type appears to be sallei from Hayti) , to which I 

 have previously referred some of its species, but it seems to 

 differ from Leptodesmus at least in the possession of a strong 

 transverse tergal groove.
