piligerous punctures are conspicuous in smooth areas, particularly 
the sides of the head, mandibles, femora and tibiae, petiole, and 
normally exposed surfaces of gastric terga. 
Pubescence appressed and decumbent, generally very sparse, 
except on antennal flagella, coxae, tarsi, flexor surfaces of fore 
tibiae, flexor surfaces of mid femora, extensor surfaces of mid 
tibiae, and apex of hypopygium. Rather abundant erect or suberect, 
fine, tapered hairs, from short to over 0.5 mm long, occur on almost 
all normally exposed surfaces of body and appendages. Color deep 
reddish brown, appendages mainly clear light red. 
Holotype (MCZ) a unique worker from Dobodura, Papua New 
Guinea (P.J. Darlington leg.). 
This magnificent species is even larger than M. loriai, and has 
very different sculpture, but the two forms are obviously closely 
related. Because of the long mandibles and large size, we guess that 
M. gigas may be a millipede predator, but we have no direct evi- 
dence of feeding behavior for this species. 
Myopias julivora new species 
(Figs. 5, 22) 
Diagnosis, worker: Similar to M. tenuis, but larger (HW 0.80- 
1.01), with relatively longer mandibles and antennae, MI > 65, 
scapes overreaching posterior border of head (when held straight 
back, full face view) by about their own apical width to nearly twice 
their apical width; all antennomeres longer than broad. Shafts of 
mandibles approximately straight over middle half of their length. 
Worker, holotype: TL 6.2, HL 1.04, HW 0.94 (Cl 90), ML 0.73 
(MI 70), MLO 1.01, SL 0.90 (SI 96), EL 0.09, WL 1.74, hind femur 
L 1.00, hind tibia L 0.94 mm. 
Worker, paratypes (n = 6 of 34 representing 7 colonies from 6 
localities, including largest and smallest specimens): TL 5. 8-6. 7, 
HLO.91-1.14, HW 0.81-1.01 (Cl 88-90), ML 0.62-0.83 (MI 66-73), 
MLO 0.86-1.14, SL 0.86-1.09 (SI 96-108), EL 0.06-0.10, WL 
1.66-1.93, hind femur L 0.89-1.15, hind tibia L 0.87-1.12 mm. 
Description limited to details not covered in diagnosis and mea- 
surements. Median frontal sulcus extends approximately to middle 
of HL, followed posteriad after a gap by a shallow pit marking 
location in queen of anterior ocellus; this pit is usually absent in M. 
tenuis, but is occasionally faintly indicated there. Compound eye
