PROSTEMMIULUS WHEELERI (Silvestri) 



Diopsiulus zvhecleri Silvestri, Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., vol. 24, pp. 568-569, 

 1908. 



Numerous specimens were collected at Roadtown, Tortola, March 

 19, 1932. 



The number of segments given by Silvestri for this species, on the 

 basis of broken specimens, is too low, as the range observed in the 

 Tortola specimens is from 40 to 45. 



The largest female is 18 mm long. 



The bodies are strongly compressed laterally in spite of Silvestri's 

 statement to the contrary.

Two female specimens, collected in Trinidad without definite local- 

 ity, were presented by Dr. F. W. Urich, of Port-of-Spain. 



These specimens agree with Pocock's description, except that each 

 has a greater number of segments than credited to the species, one 

 having 64 segments, the other 68 segments.
