ON THE MYRIOPODA OF BURMA 409 
EPIMORPHA. 
SCOLOPENDRIDAE. 
7. Scolopendra subspinipes, Lracu. 
var. de haani, Brandt, 
This well-known form, considered by some to rank as a true 
species, is noticeable as being the largest Oriental Centipede. It 
is very common in Burma. Specimens were obtained by Signor 
L. Fea at the following localities: Upper Irrawaddy: Male, 
Bhamò, Mandalay; — Pegu: Palon; — Tenasserim: Thagatà 
on the Mooleyit, Kaukareet, Malewoon; — Carin mountains: 
Cheba district (900-1200 m. alt.); by Sig. Comotto at Minhla 
and by Mr. E. W. Oates at Thayetmyo, Toundwingyi, Taikkyi, 
Tharrawaddy, Pegu Hills, Rangoon, Mandalay, Moulmein, Reef 
Island (Tavoy) and Pyminana (Upper Burma). 
8. Scolopendra morsitans (Linn.), Kour. 
This species has an exceedingly wide range and is perhaps 
the commonest of all in collections. It is much smaller than the 
preceding and may be at once recognised from it by its shorter 
and thicker anal legs and by having the femur of these ap- 
pendages furnished beneath with from 8 to 10 (usually 9) spines 
arranged in three longitudinal series. 
In Burma it appears to be as common as Sc. de haanii. Spe- 
cimens were obtained by Sig. Fea at Upper Burma: Teinzò, 
Bhamò; — Pegu: Taikkyi, Palon, Rangoon; — Tenasserim : 
Kaukareet, Malewoon; — Carin mountains: Cheba district 
(900-1200 m. alt.), by Comotto at Minhla and by Mr. Oates 
at Akyab, Taikkyi, Tharrawaddy, Moulmein, Toundwingyi, 
Rangoon, Thayetmyo, Mandalay and on Table Island (An- 
damans).
