Wr: hope to deal before very long with some centipede and 

 milhptd- m.iterial from the English Midlands, but we think 

 tlie present brief note advisable, owing to the exceptional 

 interest of tlie species it records'. 



Mr. S. Priest, F.G.S., with Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Epps (all 

 ni< nibers of the Dartford Naturalists' Field Club) visited 

 Upper Arle}--, Worcestershire, on 22. vii. 1918, and took a 

 number of millipedes and centipedes between the bark and 

 trunk of fallen timber in a meadow next to the churciiyard 

 there. This material, which was kindly submitted to us by 

 the collectors, included a species of Julus (s. 1.), wliicli upon 

 dissection we fonnd to be referable to Cylindroiuhts pariai- 

 orvm (Brolemann et Verhoeff, 1896).

We sent our drawing of the gonopods to ^I. le Dr. Henry 

 W. liiolemann, who agrees with our diaunosi.^!, and informs n.*, 

 ill lift., that nobody appears to have ideniiticd the .species 

 since its first description (i). 'J'hus some doubt had arisen 

 in Dr. Brolemann's mind as to the validity of the species. 

 The Engli.sh rediscovery of the animal is therefore of some 

 importance.
