In 1878 J. A. Ryder'^ notices the discovery of a second species of 

 Paiiropoda in America. — Pauropus Huxkyi, iiitherto known only from 

 England; in 1879 the discovery of a third forming a new genus Eury- 

 f>:mropus\ and in 1881 he gives a list of the Lydopeialidce of North America 

 adding a new genus and species, Zygonopus Whitei. 



Packard'^ published three papers in 1883, the first describing Poly- 

 desmns oceUatus (since referred by Stuxberg to Craspedosoma); the second 

 a revision of the Lysiopeialidce, a most important addition to our litera- 

 ture, giving a summary of the information at hand and founding the new- 

 genus Crypiotrichus on Spirostrephon casioannulatus Wood; the last is a 

 short paper on the Morphology of the Myriapoda. 



Finally in 1884 LatzeP*^ in his masterly work on the Myriapoda of 

 Austro-Hungary has given some notes on American species notably the 

 so-called Lysiopetalida. His criticisms will be found stated below. 



Such is the principal literature on the subject to date, to say nothing 

 of many shorter notes on distribution, structure and classification that 

 have appeared in various periodicals and other publications. 



The European species have been carefully studied by Meinert*" 

 1866— 1868, Fanzago" 1874, LatzeP^ 1880— 1884, and others. The 

 work of the last named author is the most important contribution to a 

 knowledge of the Myriapoda that has appeared for a long time. It is
