 Only one s])ecimen.

11. StoIi(ipJ(fii('S (/r 'ciJis. s^\). now 



Frontal plate present. 



Orange, liead and antenn* brownish. Slender, strongly attenuate anter- 

 iorl}', less so posteriorly ; smooth, sparsely pilose, feet more densely. 



Prehensorial feet sparsely pilose ; sternum subcordiform, \yider than long 

 (o :2.3); coxa twice as wide as long, unarmed ; last joint unarmed ; claw 

 moderately curved, excavated beneath, as long as the head is wide. Ceph- 

 alic plate sub-quadrate, of almost equal length and width, posterior margin 

 concealed by basal plate ; prebasal plate concealed ; basal plate four times 

 as wide as long (4.5 : 1.2) 



First pair of feet short, anterior and posterior sub-equal. 



Posterior coxa rather strongly inflated, pilose ; pores few, large and 

 small, placed in two irregular rows along the ventral plate, which is very 

 wide, sides rapidly converging and sub-straight. Last pair of feet of male 

 rather slender, armed ; of female somewhat more slender and armed. 



Pairs of feet of <5 , 80 : of $ , 83. 



Length of body $ , 84.5 mm., width, .5 mm ; $ , 53.5 mm., width, 1.4 mm. 



'J'his species onght to form a new geiuis, but having onl}' an 

 adult female and a young male, I have not been able to examine 

 tlie moutb-])arts. 



It differs from Scolioplanes in the characters of the cephalic 

 plate, prehensorial feet, and the last ventral plate and pair of 

 feet. 



12. Scolopcryptops sexspinosus (Say). 



Specimens from this locality, as well as those from more 

 sotithern ones, differ in some important details from the north- 

 ern specimens, principally in having the last pair of legs more 

 slender, and the last ventral plate narrower ; but these charac- 

 ters do not seem to warrant the formation of a different species. 



13. Scolopcryjjtops nigridius McNiell.
