(probably introduced), Hemiscolopendra, and Scolopendra are known 
in the Brazilian fauna.

SCOLOPENDROPSIS BAHIENSIS Brandt. 
Bull. sci. Acad. imper. sci. St. Peterburg, 1840, 7, p. 24; Kraepelin, Revis.

Pithopus inermis Pocock, Ann. mag. nat. hist., 1891, ser. 6, 7, p. 223, pl. 5, f. 5; 
Kraepelin, Revis. Scolop., 1903, p. 172. 
Scolopendropsis thayert Brélemann, Cat. Myr. Brésil, 1909, p. 32. 
Localities.— State of Bahia: Bahia, Iguarassu (the type locality of 
inermis (Pocock)). State of Para: Santarem (the type locality of 
thayert (Mein.)). 
Kraepelin suggests the identity of thayert Meinert with calcaratus 
Pocock; but an examination of the type of thayert shows that it is the 
same as the inermis of Pocock and that both are the same as Brandt’s 
bahiensis which has long priority. Through probable error twenty- 
three pairs of legs were attributed to Brandt’s species, although the 
not very probable suggestion has been made that the species is di- 
morphic, having some individuals with twenty-three and others with 
twenty-one pairs of legs.
