274 Mr. T. D. A. Cockerell on Fossil Arthropods 
The specimens in Burmese amber (burmite) are also of 
Tertiary age, and were sent by Mr. R. C. J. Swinhoe, of 
Mandalay, who kindly presents them to the British Museum. 
The character and age of the beds has been discussed in 
earlier papers, particularly Amer. Journ. Science, Aug. 1916, 
p.oas 
PSEUDOSCORPIONIDA. 
Garypus burmiticus, sp.n. (Fig. 1.) 
Legs and pedipalpi intense black; apparently no tro- 
chantins. Pedipalp with coxa elongated, produced apically ; 
femur ordinary, rather stout, about 450 uw long ; tibia about 
350 uw long, very stout, obtusely angulate on inner side; hand 
long (about 800 ~), with a narrow neck, followed by a broad

Garypus burmiticus, Ckll. 
base which tapers gradually to the apex, the outer margin 
beyond the basal curve being practically straight ; the pedi- 
palp has very few hairs, longest on the hand. Jaw with a 
long serrula, not detached apically; no flagellum ; stylet 
present. 
Burmese amber, from R. C. J. Swinhoe. 
Represented by a cast skin, about 6 mm., from the type of 
Epyris atavellus. The serrula, shown in the figure, is about 
70 pw long. 
I concluded that this could go in Garypus, and, sending a 
copy of my figures to Dr. N. Banks, am informed by him 
that, so far as these go, there is no reason for objecting to the 
reference. Among the species of Baltic amber there is a 
resemblance in the pedipalp to Olisium rathkit, Koch and 
Berendt, though in our Garypus the hand is conspicuously 
more attenuate. ;
