SOME NEW SPECIES OF NORTH AMERICAN MYRIAPODS* 

 By Charles Harvey Bollman. 



Thefollowing newspecies are described from specimens in the museum 

 of the Indiana University and my own collection. Six of these are 

 from Bloomington. Indiana, thus making 18 new species which have 

 been described from that locality. Three others were found in a very 

 small collection made at Fort Suelling, Minnesota. 



The types of the new species are in the museum of the Indiana Uni- 

 versity and specimens of Soolioplanes ruber and Lithoblus cardinal is, 

 proridens, and pullus have been sent to Dr. Anton Stuxberg, of Gothen- 

 burg, Sweden. 



1. Julus burkei. 



[Jains burkei Bollmaa. Amer. Nat., xxi, 82 (1887). 

 Nannolene burkei Bollman. Entoin. Amer., ii. 225 (1887) ; Ann. N. Y. Acad. Sci., 

 iv, 40(1887).] 



Light yellowish-brown, with darker shadings, a row of black spots 

 along each side, feet and antennae paler. Slender, wrinkled like leather. 

 Vertex with a slender, median sulcus, no foveola;, wrinked like the 

 back. Antenna? crasse-clavate, the last joints rather densely pilose, 

 about equaling the breadth of body. Ocelli arranged in a triangular 

 form, in three or four series, about 18, inconspicuous, the upper not tilled 

 out, a few covered by the first dorsal scuta. Segments 45-47 ; the first 

 segment large, semicircular, the posterior augle barely rounded, sides 

 striate; other segments moderately striate, the posterior margin with a 

 row of hairs. Repugnatorial opening conspicuous, not touching the 

 transverse line or forming a bend in it. Anal segment rounded, not 

 projecting beyond the anal valves; anal valves with a few hairs, mar- 

 ginate; anal scales distinct, rounded. Pairs of feet 70-7:i, moderately 

 long and slender. Length of body, 14™"'. 



Habitat. — Ukiah, California (James H. Burke). 



There are two specimens in the museum of the Indiana University, 

 which were labeled J, Jiortensis. 



*This paper was found among the effects of the late Charles H. Bollman. It con- 

 tains full descriptions of ten new forms of Myriapods. Brief diagnoses of nine of 

 these species have already heen published in the American Naturalist, Volume xxi, 

 pp. 81, 82 (January, 1887). Scolopocryptops oalearatua has not been before described 

 It seems desirable that these fuller descriptions should be published in order to en- 

 able future students of the subject to more certainly identify the species. — LuciEX
