East-Indian Chilopoda and Diplopoda. 65 
fulvous, with proximal joints browner. Anal scutum with 
cauda red, basal region black; valves black, excepting 
elevated inner borders, which are red. 
Vertigial sulcus distinct. Antenne reaching to caudal 
edge of second segment. Eyes more than their diameter 
apart ; ocelli in six series—e. g., 13, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 (5). 
Head behind transverse sulci at edge of collum with deep, 
close, longitudinal furrows or rugz, elsewhere smooth. 
Collum with lower margin nearly straight ; antero-lateral 
angle rounded ; caudal margin concave just above lower 
corner on each side. Strongly margined below and in 
front. Two deep longitudimal sulci a little above lower 
margining furrow from caudal margin part way forward 
to anterior margin. 
The segmental sulci very deep, widely curving opposite 
the pores. Metazonites with longitudinal striz below, and 
up the side nearly to pore, strongly marked. Prozonites 
wholly smooth throughout. 
Cauda exceeding valves; a little upcurled at the tip; a 
deep sulcus setting off the caudal region from the basal.. 
Valves strongly margined. 
Number of segments fifty-six to sixty. 
Diameter (male) 10 mm.; length about 1385 mm.

Type, Mus. Comp. Zool. (No. 4812); paratypes (No. 
4813). 
The female much resembles 7. javanicus (Brandt), 
though differing in details ; but the male is very different in 
the form of the gouopods. 
GoNOPLECTUS, gen nov. 
This genus is referred to the Harpagophoridee, with which 
it agrees in general, though the characteristic series of stout 
setz on the distal plate of the posterior gonopods was not 
detected in the long preserved and dried type-specimen. 
The gonocosl is open laterally, the posterior gonopods 
curving ectad and then proximad. Anterior median plate 
somewhat inversely T-shaped, lying over the bases of the 
middle pieces of the anterior gouepods; the latter in con- 
tact along their mesal edges, strongly clavately widening 
distad as in Leivtelus. Outer piece of anterior gonopod 
exposed at base, but bending strongly mesad and mostly 
concealed behind the inner plate. Posterior gonopod giving 
rise at level of exit on anterior face to a stout, distally 
pointed, long blade that curves De -mesad about the
