Loc. Bermuda. 



Described originally from the Azores by Lucas and subse- 

 quently recorded by Bollman from Bermuda. The British 

 Museum has examples of what is apparently the same species 

 from Madeira.

 legs pale. 



Bod^ very long and slender. 



Head smooth, Avith a frontal sulcus and a transverse stria 

 between the eyes ; without apparent frontal setae. Si/es large, 

 with ocelli distinctly defined, arranged in six, transverse rows.

 the angle. The rest of the segments with complete transverse 

 sulcus and a median dorsal longitudinal sulcus, all of them, 

 including the second, longitudinally striated behind the 

 sulcus, the strige fine, complete, and very close-set, the area in 

 front of the sulcus smooth. Pores large, situated about one 

 third of the distance behind the sulcus, which is at this spot 

 lightly sinuate forwards, the space between the sulcus and the 

 pore not striate.

 compressed or marginate.

Loc. Teneriffe. 



Li its black colouring, slender build, position of pores, &c. 

 this species at first sight seems to fall into the Oj^/nulus section 

 of Berlese ; but the absence of a spine on the terminal seg- 

 ment serves at once to distinguish it.
