East-Indian Chilopoda and Diplopoda. 81 
Sternites glabrous ; without processes in general, but the 
fifth sternite in the male with two low, broad, mesally con- 
fluent elevations. 
In the gonopods of the male the second joint mesally 
strongly setose ; produced caudad into a distally rounded 
spur. Telopodite broad ; distally with a dorso-ectal blade 
concave on mesal side, distally margined to an acute angle 
and curved mesad, and arising from ventral edge of base of 
this a style which is slender and acute at tip ; along basal 
part with a thin blade-like marginal extension, and at base a 
short acute process extending meso-ventrad. Coxal hook 
long and slender. 
Length (male) 32 mm. ; width 4:2 mm.

Type, Mus. Comp. Zool. (No. 4860); paratypes (No. 
46381). 
Privnopeltis montanus, sp. n. 
Deep chocolate to black in colour, the keels bright yellow 
toorange. Legs brown. Autenne blackish like the tergites. 
Antenne slender, not elevate. A distinct vestigial sulcus 
present, this bifurcating below and sending a branch to the 
edge of each antennal socket. 
Anterior margin of collum evenly convex between the 
lateral angles. Caudal margin straight except at ends, 
where the angles of the keels are very slightly prcduced. 
In other tergites the angles of the keels are strongly 
produced caudad. The lateral borders of the keels strongly 
thickened and elevated. In the female a single small acute 
lateral tooth on each keel, this usually obscure or absent in 
the male. All tergites from fifth to eighteenth inclusive 
with a deep transverse sulcus. Tergites showing also a 
much finer median longitudinal line at right angles to the 
transverse sulcus. The surface of the tergites between keels 
coriariously more or less roughened ; over and adjacent to 
the bases of the keels the surface weakly tubercular, the 
tubercles being low and closely crowded. 
Anal scutum transversely depressed near caudal end of 
anterior fourth of length. Cauda moderately wide, hollowed 
out beneath, with a prominent tubercle on each side of the 
caudal end. Anal valves strongly margined. Anal scale 
convexly rounded caudally ; the two tubercles very large. 
In the telopodite of the male gonopods the two distal 
branches are slender and finely acute, each towards its distal 
eud bending directly mesad, and one curving about and
