pair of long hairs , which reaches the posterior ends of the ab- 

 <lominal lobes. In the posterior corners of the two abruptly 

 truncate abdominal portions two pairs of hairs are planted (before 

 the lobes) which are nearly twice longer than the lobes. Each 

 of these bear two long trailing hairs, longer than the length of 

 the creature , one in the anterior and outer corner , and one in 

 the posterior excavation of the lobes. 



Ventral side (Fig. 17). Epimera I long, extending 

 forward to the base of the rostrum , slightly curved medialward, 

 free. Epimera II long, extending forward to trochanteres I, thick, 

 and proximally widened and nearly reaching the proximal ends 

 of epimera III. Epimera III long, transverse, two times slightly 

 noddod, so that they are almost crescent-shaped, at least curved 

 forward , provided with a short external epimerite which limits 

 the anterior and internal edge of the small triangulär extra-coxal 

 shields. Epimera IV long, strong , convergent forward, nearly 

 reaching the proximal ends of epimera II and III. — Shields. 

 The extra-coxal shields III small, triangulär ; a small portion is 

 sufflexed on the dorsal side. The coxal shields III are much 

 larger, triangulär, and by the Singular position of the epimera III 

 they are not directed medialward , but more or less backward, 

 against the lateral edge of the body on which the legs III are 

 implanted. The coxal shields IV are narrow and strongly chitinised. 

 There is also a large ventral shield covering the whole ventral 

 side of the abdomen, inclusive the lobes. — Hairs. Inside the 

 middle of epimera II a pair of short and fine hairs. Inside (behind) 

 the middle of epimera III a pair of strong and long hairs, extending 

 beyond the articulation of the abdominal lobes. On the proximal 

 ends of the narrow coxal shields IV a pair of short and fine 

 hairs. In the distal half of the same shields a pair of ditto. 

 Behind the A-shaped chitinous genital apparatus a pair of ditto. 

 In the posterior and external corners of the truncated abdomen 

 a pair of thick hairs, twice longer than the abdominal lobes. On 

 the triangulär extra-coxal plates III the long lateral hairs, longer 

 than the half of the greatest width of the body. (As already 

 mentioned above , the so-called short lateral hairs have a dorsal 

 Position.) — Genital apparatus A-shaped , small , between 

 epimera IV. G e n i t al s uc k e r s outside of the genital ap- 

 paratus. Penis minute, at least not discernible in the specimen 

 examinated. Anus apparently tubulär and situated between the 

 two well developed anal suckers which are situated before 

 a line that goes transversely through the anterior top of the 

 abdominal incision. 



Mandibles normal (Fig. 16).
