ON THE MYRIOPODA OF BURMA 431 
H. striatum by possessing six segments to its anal legs; its anal 
pleurae are less inflated and its tergites are comparatively smooth. 
The figure of this species on Plate XXIV of vol. XXI of 
the Journal of the Linnean Society, is erroneous in some par- 
ticulars. Thus the antennae are too 
slender in their distal half, the head is 
too rounded anteriorly, the claws of the 
maxillary feet are too short and too 
curved and the anal pleurae should 
have been porous. 
32. Himantosoma porosum, sp. n. 
Body anteriorly and posteriorly at- 
tenuate ; body and limbs hairy. 
Colour pale ochraceous above, testa- 
ceous beneath. 
Head-plate (fig.) convex, sub-quadrate, 
almost covering the maxillary feet. 
Maxillary sternite (fig.) less depressed 
in the middle than in the preceding 
species and slightly longer from before 
backwards; the claw more slender and 
less blade-like, scarcely overlapping 
the head-plate in front. 
Antennae (fig.) long, incrassate, apical 
segment ovate and twice the length of 
the preceding segment. 
Tergites smooth, but hairy, not bisul- 
cate, very obsoletely wrinkled in the 
middle of the body. 
Sternites thickly and coarsely punc- 
tured and hairy, not bisulcate, with 
Himantosoma porosum. 
an anterior ‘circular porous area and a posterior transverse 
porous area, the two separated by a feebly indicated median 
transverse line.
