With the exception of Paracryptops weberi which seems peculiar , the 

 Centipede population of this island consists of species which have a 

 wide range in the Oriental Region. The two species of Scolopendra 

 and the Orphnœus, indeed, are found in the tropical parts of both 

 hemispheres. 



III. List of the species with descriptions of those that are new. 



SCUTIGERIDAE. 



Scutigera. 



1. Scutigera longicornis (Fabr.). Haase. 



Haase: Die Indisch- Austral. Chilopoden. p. 17.

 This specimen agrees very closely with the one from Tjibodas which 

 was described by Dr. Haase. The ochraceous tint of the stomatiferous 

 saddles contrasts strongly with the marbled olivaceous tint of the 

 rest of the tergites. In the legs the green bands on the patellae are 

 strongly marked.

2. Henicops albipes sp. n. PL XIX, Fig. 1— l a . 



Java: Tjibodas. A single specimen. 

 Colour rufo-testaceous ; head pale castaneous; legs and antennas 

 albo-testaceous , the basal segment of the latter brunneous.
