A. Croneberg (Zool. Anz. ii. p. 450) considers that the poison glands 
of Solpuga consist of two thoracic glands at the sides of the stomach.

The Arachnids of this Order are divided by Simon into 10 genera, the 
main characters of which are given in an analytical table. 33 species are 
described, and 25 others given as unseen. The 58 species are divided 
among the various genera as follows : Galeodes, Oliv., 13 species (6 
described, 7 unseen), Gmtulia, Sim., 14 species (7 described, 7 unseen), 
Zeria, Sim., 1 species (described), Rhax, C. L. Koch, 8 species (3 described, 
6 unseen), Gylippus, Sim., 1 species (described), DinorrhaXj Sim., 1 species 
(described), Gluvia, C. L. Koch, 4 species (describcjd), Dafames, Sim., 5 
species (described), Cleobis, Sim., 5 species (3 described, 2 unseen), Mum- 
viucia, Sim., 1 species (described). Callopus, G. L. Koch, 1 species (both 
genus and species unknown), 4 other species (under Solpuga and Galeodes 
by several authors) considered doubtful. 
The following new genera and species are described : — 
Zeria, closely allied to Gcetulia ; differs in having the ocular eminence 
without the two bulbous hairs, and in the absence of spines on the meta- 
tarsi of the fourth pair of legs. Type, Z. persephone, p. 118, Oran. 
Gylippus ; close to Rhax, but differs in having the first pair of legs 
slender, and no spines on the palpi. The “ flagellum ” is also inserted 
quite at the base of the falx, thus differing in its position from that of 
all the other genera. Type, G. syriacus, Sim., id. 1. c. p. 125, Syria. 
Dino[_ry'hax, very like Rhax, but the legs still shorter, the falces enor- 
mously developed, and no terminal claws on the tarsi of the first pair of 
legs. Type, D. rostrum-psittaci, Sim., p. 126, pi. iii. fig. 16, Moluccas, 
Annam, and Cochin China.
