ON THE MYRIOPODA OF BURMA 427 
The anal legs appear to be long and slender in both sexes; 
| they may be more than twice the length of the legs of the 
preceding somite. 
In young specimens (e. g. one of 33 
mm. in length) the anal pleurae are 
furnished with only three enormous pores, 
one being above and in front, the others 
below (fig.). 
In the anterior half of the body the 
claws (fig.) are very curiously constructed, 
being perforated by a distinct orifice. 
This is formed by the forward growth 
of an inferior basal spine, which ultimately meets and appa- 
rently unites with the apex of the claw. 
The spiracular sclerites are smaller than the prescutellar, and 
are in contact with the tergites. 
Himantarium Meinerti. 
30. Himantarium doriae, sp. n. 
Body long and slender, not markedly attenuate either ante- 
riorly or posteriorly. 
Colour ochraceous above, testaceous beneath. : 
Head plate (fig.) wider behind than in front, covering the maxil- 
lary feet. . 
Antennae very thick at the base and in contact, attenuate, the 
apical segment ovate and as long as the two that precede it. 
Prebasal plate not visible; basal plate short, as wide as the 
head, with parallel sides. 
Maxillary sternite (fig.) with chitinous lines, a little wider 
than long, the jaws weak, falling far short of the anterior 
margin of the head plate; the claw, slender and curved. 
Tergites not bisulcate. 
Sternites not sulcate, but marked in the hinder half by a 
conspicuous, small, sub-crescentic, porous area. 
Anal somite (fig.); tergite wide, narrowed behind, almost covering 
the pleurae; plewrae not inflated and wholly smooth; sternite
