MYRIOPODA FROM BURMA 805 



and behind below the level of the P^ and of the 3'''; keels of 

 S""'' and 4"' horizontal, but not produced; keels of the rest near 

 the middle of the side, small, but not produced posteriorly, the 

 anterior angle large and convex , the posterior angles slightly 

 obtuse, except quite at the end of the body where they are a 

 little produced ; the keels in the posterior two thirds of the body 

 continue the vaulted slope of the back. The posterior keel-bearing 

 half of each somite distinctly rugulose, being covered with a 

 close network of fine anastomosing striae. The transverse sulcus 

 well-developed, not sculptured and not mesially sinuate, extending 

 from the 3'*' to the 18'"; the anterior constriction very lightly 

 impressed with punctures. Caudal process sub-cylindrical, but 

 with one distinct lateral tubercle and distinctly bifid at the 

 apex. The lateral surface of tlie keel-bearing portion of the 

 somites finely granular. The inferior keel present only on the 2"'^ 

 and S''*^ somites, represented on the rest by a prominence which 

 is continuous above with the lateral surface, but below overlaps 

 a groove containing the tracheal tubercles. The sternal surface 

 lightly sulcate longitudinally and transversely. Anal slernite bear- 

 ing two elongate tubercles, whicli project considerably beyond 

 its convex posterior border. 



Legs normal, with the distal segment very hairy ; not ter- 

 minated by a distinct claw ; the femur nearly twice as long 

 as the tarsus, wdiich is only about one third longer than the 

 tibia, which slightly exceeds the trochanter. 



Length 40 mm; width 6 mm.

Sig. Fea procured one 9 example at each of the above given 

 localities. Moreover at Palon in Pegu he obtained a considerable 

 number of specimens, which although immature and therefore of 

 doubtful identity, may nevertheless be referable to this same 

 species. From their distribution, however one would conclude 

 that they are more likely to be the young of the following 

 species viltatus.
