NO. 14 MILLIPEDS OF WEST INDIES AND GUIANA LOOMIS I9 



None of the specimens exceeds the limit of size given by Pocock 

 for this species, which increases the probabihty that R. serpentinus 



Fig. 8. — Rhinocricus grammostictus. Gonopods, anterior view. 



Pocock is a valid species, although no specimens of it have been seen 

 since it was described. 



The gonopods of R. grammostictus are shown in figure 8. 



NESOBOLUS MALTZANI (Pocock) 



Rhinocricus waltzani Pocock, Journ. Linn. Soc. London, vol. 24, pp. 495-496, 

 1894.

CUBOBOLUS RAMAGEI (Pocock) 

 Rhinocricus ramagei Pocock, Journ. Linn. Soc. London, vol. 24, p. 489, 1894. 



A number of specimens of this species were collected in the Cul de 

 Sac Valley, St. Lucia, February 3, 1932. 



As Pocock's description was based on a single female specimen, 

 and the species has not subsequently been reported, the following notes 

 are given. 



Length varying from 42 to 55 mm. 



Living color almost completely black above, except the head and 

 the first two or three segments, which are light yellowish brown. The 

 first segment has a small black area behind the middle of the anterior 

 margin. Mucro of the last segment light brown. Antennae, legs, and 

 ventral surfaces almost pure white. Pocock's statement that there is 

 a light spot in the middle of the dorsum of each segment applies only 

 to a few specimens after they have been preserved in alcohol, none 

 being seen in living animals. 



Antennal cones numerous.
