While collecting in the garden of Beech House, Great 

 Longstone, one ot" us found a number of specimens of a small 

 millipede of the genus CJwrdeumella. Upon microsco[)ic 

 examination it became evident that this creature cannot be 

 referred to the oidy known British representative of the 

 genus, C. scutellare brdlemanni, Brade-Birks, although it 

 falls itito the species C. scutellare. Nevertheless we found 

 differences which justify a subspecitic name for this animal, 

 which is described later in tiiis study.

Tiiis large and active brown centipede has more than two 

 Iceth Oil eacli of the coxic of the maxillipedes. Its seventh 

 dorsal plate is not produced posteriorly. The anal legs are

 and in other damp situations. We have previously (4) 

 recorded it for the county, as it was sent to us from Great 

 Longstone (1 ?, A. W.F., 13/x./15) ; ^Dove Dale, IL ^.,
