30 Dr. Malcolm Burr’s Revision of the Genus Diplatys. 
Diplatys macrocephala, Burr, (1900*) p. 47, (1904?) p. 
282. 
Diplatys macrocephala, Kirby, (1904) p. 1 (excl. syn. D. 
rafrayt). 
Diplatys macrocephala, Borelli, (1907°) p. 346. 
This species, the type of the genus, resembles some of 
the Indian species with inflated last dorsal segment. It 
occurs in West Africa, in the Congo State at Boma (Mus. 
Brux.) and Stanley Pool (c.m.),in Benin under the bark 
of trees (Pal.-Beauv.), and in Fernando Po, at Basile, at an 
elevation of 2000 ft. (Borelli). The species from Burma 
recorded under this name by de Bormans are to be 
referred to D. bormansi and D. liberatus. 
I was unable to find the type in the Paris Museum, and 
do not know where it is. 
3. Diplatys falcatus, Burr 
Diplatys falcatus, Burr, (1910') p. 42, fig. 4 and fig. 3a 
in text. 
This Indo-Burmese species is described, discussed and 
figured by me in (1910'). It has a superficial resemblance 
to the preceding species, but the penultimate ventral 
segment is different. 
Type in the Indian Museum, Calcutta. 
4. Diplatys lefroyi, Burr 
Diplatys lefroyi, Burr, (1910") p. 44, fig. 5 and fig. 3) in 
text. 
This is another Indian species described and figured in 
the same work. The basal dilation of the forceps is so 
short that it may easily escape detection. Thus the species 
has a superficial resemblance to J. bormansi, but it is in 
reality allied to D. falcatus. 
Type in the Indian Museum, Calcutta. 
5. Diplatys angustatus, Burr 
Diplatys angustatus, Burr, (1910') p. 44, fig. 6 and 
fig. 3c in text. 
This Indian species is related to the preceding, but may 
be at once distinguished by the rectangular lobe on the 
penultimate ventral segment. 
Type in the Indian Museum, Calcutta.
