MYRIOPODA FROM BURMA 799 



process on the sternum of the 5"*. Copulatory feet short, reaching 

 the middle of the 6'" sternum, applied ; each half setose at the 

 base, inner border straightish , outer border angled proximally, 

 convex distally terminating in three processes (cf. fig. 5). 



Length about 30 mm. ; width 4. 



Loc. Rangoon (Gates and Fea). 



This species is nearly allied to tanjorkus , Pocock, Journ. 

 Bombay Nat. Hist. Soc. VII, no. 2, p. 147, pi. I, fig. 3, from 

 Tanjore, as is especially shown by the form of the copulatory 

 feet and the thickened anterior legs of the ^. But it may be 

 at once recognised by its fuscous legs and sternal areas, much 

 less prominent keels and deeper transverse tergal sulcus. 



8. A-iioploclesmus striolatus , sp. n. 



(Fig. 6). 



9 Colour: terga chocolate brown or nearly black ; keels and 

 tail, antennae and legs fulvous ; sterna also fulvous. Differs from 

 anthracinus in having the terga less polished, being in fact 

 distinctly striolate longitudinally especially at the sides; the 

 transverse sulcus is deeper and extends from the 4"" to the 19'"; 

 the edges of the keels are much thinner, the posterior angles 

 from the 16"' to the 19'" are acute, and from the 17"' surpass 

 the edge of the tergite. The inferior crest scarcely traceable 

 beyond the 7'" or 8"" somite. 



Legs longer than in anthracinus^ but showing much the same 

 proportion of segments. 



Length about 35 mm.; width 5. 



c/. Narrower than 9 and Hatter, but with keels much better 

 developed, their posterior borders lightly convex, and from about 

 the IP" surpassing the hinder edge of the tergite, the anterior 

 angles widely rounded. Anterior legs unmodified ; the process 

 on the sternum of the 5"" segment large, convex, undivided as 

 in obesus and pinguis. Copulatory foot not very different from 

 that of
