of femur rounded. Patella about two-fifths as deep as long. 
Claw not quite half as long as upper margin of tarsus. 
First legs.—Long and slender, slightly longer than body. 
Coxa terminating behind base of trochanter of arm. Femur 
slightly longer than tibia, tibia longer than foot. Foot about 
twelve times as long as deep, deepest at end of metatarsus; second 
metatarsus scarcely as long as sum of five proximal tarsal joints; 
terminal tarsal joint slightly longer than sum of three proximal 
tarsal joints, and about three-fifths of the length of the whole 
metatarsus. 
Fourth legs. Somewhat shorter than body; femur about two 
and a half times as long as deep. 
Tail.—About six times as long as deep, four-jointed as in 
Schizomus s. str., the distal joint about one and a half times as 
long as the sum of the three proximal ones. 
Colour.——Brown. 
Length.—About 4°5 mm. 
This species differs from all hitherto described in the combina- 
tion of a divided second thoracic tergite with a four-jointed tail; 
there seem moreover to be indications of a division of the long 
distal joint into two parts, though of this I am not certain. 
Schizomus (Trithyreus), n. sp. 
Locality.—Pass between Chaibassa and Chakardharpur in 
Chota Nagpur. I obtained a few immature specimens under 
stones in the bed of a small stream in the jungle.
