In addition to the above localities ‘‘ Thelyphonus assamensis ”” 
was recorded by Simon in 1885 (p 452) from the Malay Peninsula 
and Indo-China. In 1896 he again recorded the species from Indo- 
China, this time from Pavie’s collection. In his full report upon

that collection, however, he records Thelyphonus schimkewttschi 
instead (1904, p. 293). Uvoproctus assamensis is not otherwise 
recorded either south or east of Assam, and there can be no doubt, 
I think, that the record from the Malay Peninsula as well as that 
from Indo-China was based upon an incorrect determination. 
Kraepelin records the species from Calcutta ; but this record prob- 
ably refers not to the original place of capture, but to the place 
of dispatch; for there do not appear to be any Thelyphonids in 
the Gangetic Plain or Delta. 
Uroproctus assamensis is an extremely constant species, in 
spite of its abundance and wide distribution. Even abnorma- 
lities in the teeth on the trochanters of the arms, such as are 
shown in text-fig. 2, are very rare, occurring only in two or three 
out of over fifty specimens examined, 
1 According to the labels these two localities are situated at the base of the 
Dafla Hills. They must therefore be in or near the Darrang District. I cannot 
locate them with greater precision than this.
