IU'LUS, /. in entomology, a genus of apterous infefts. 
Generic characters : Antennae moniliform ; feelers two, 
jointed; body fubcylindric, confifting of numerous tranf- 
verfe fegments; legs numerous, twice as many on each 
fide as the fegments of the body. The Iuli are fo nearly 
allied to the Scolopendrae, that in the Fauna Suecica of 
Linnaeus both are united in one genus. However, their 
body, inftead of being flattened, as in thofe infefts, is 
nearly cylindrical 5 and every joint or fegment is furnifhed 
with two pair of feet, the number on each fide doubling 
that of the fegments, whereas in the Scolopendrae the 
number of joints and of feet is, moftly, equal on each fide. 
The eyes ot the Iuli are compofedof numerous hexagonal 
convexities, as in the major part of the inleft-tribe; and 
the mouth is furnifhed with a pair of denticulated jaws. 
The general motion of thefe animals is rather flow and 
undulatory. 
1. Inlus ovatus, the ovate iulus: legs 20 each fide. Ig 
probably an onifeus. Inhabits the European Ocean. 
2. Iulus complanatus, the flat iulus; legs 30 each fide; 
body flattifh; tail pointed. Body brown ; antennae flight)/ 
clavate. Inhabits Europe. 
3. Iulus depreflus, the large flat iulus: legs 30 each 
fide ; body flattifh ; tail rounded entire. Head brown ; 
fegments rough grey and prominent each fide. Inhabits 
Ealt-India ; ten times as large as the preceding. . 
4. Iulus ltigma, the marked iulus: legs 30 each fide; 
body black with a white dot each fide on every other feg¬ 
ment. Antennae and legs black; tail pointed white. In¬ 
habits Tranquebar; twice as large as I. complanatus. 
5. Iulus tridentatus, the three-toothed iulus : legs 36 
each fide; tail three-toothed. Body with 18 grey feg- 
ments, each marked with a ferruginous dorfal dot; legs 
with two denticles at the bale. Inhabits America; thicker 
than I. fabulofus. 
6. Iulus varius, the varied iulus: legs 78 each fide; feg- 
ments of the body black at the bale and whit? at the tip. 
Head black with a white band in the middle ; iegments 
with a fine ferruginous margin; legs black. Inhabits 
Italy ; middle-fized. 
7. Iulus craflus, the thick iulus: legs 80 each fide; tail 
acute. Inhabits Alia; pale with a line of black dots each 
lide. 
8. Iulus carnifex, the butcher iulus: legs 94 each fide; 
head and legs red ; tail with a red line. Larger than I, 
fabulofus. Tail pointed. Inhabits Tranquebar. 
9. Iulus terreltris, the earth iulus : legs 100 each fide; 
body blackifh polilhed. This fpecies, which is reprefented 
on the annexed engraving at fig. 1, is about fixteen lines 
long and two in diameter. It is ftiaped like a ferpent in 
miniature, the body being perfeftly cylindric. The pre¬ 
vailing colour is blackifh brown ; two ltripes of faint red 
run along the back ; the claws whitilh and tranlparent. 
When touched, it roils its body up into a flat ipiral, as it 
appears at fig. 2. and it often lies a long time in that po- 
iition. The head is rounded ; front convex ; there are 
two teeth, or jaws, beneath, between two lips. The an- 
tennse are brown, not much more than a line in iength, 
but divided into fix articulations, ending in a knob : tfiefe 
are continually in motion as the animal walks; he leems to 
feel his way with them. The eyes are on each fide beyond 
the antennae ; they are large, oval, and black. The two 
rows of legs are very near together; each leg is about one 
line long, and, like the antennae, divided into fix joints; 
they are thickeft next the body, and taper to a point: lee 
one of them magnified at rig. 3. The Iegments of the 
body are 54, which would leem to make the number of 
legs 216 ; but the firlt and three lalt iegments have no 
legs; thus the number of legs is juft 200, four (two on 
each fide) to each fegment, or ring. 
Degeer has given a very particular defeription of this 
infect. The fkin which covers the head and body is hard 
and fcaly ; it is only therefore by its being divided into 
rings that it can have fuch facility of motion as we fee it 
has; for it makes every kind of inflexion, like a ferpent. 
The body is perfeftly fmooth; no hairinefs can be per¬ 
ceived. 
This infeft, when handled, leaves a ftrong difagreeable 
fmeli on the fingers. It is however a harmlefs animal. 
It lives commonly in the earth, and is often met with un¬ 
der ftones that have lain along time in the fame place. 
And upon the earth it leems to feed, for its excrement 
Degeer obferved to have that appearance 5 but he law it 
alfo gnawing a fly in the pupa-ftate which accidentally lay 
near it; it is therefore carnivorous ; but whether it catches 
living worms has not been afeertained. Frilch fays that 
he kept them alive for a confiderable time by feeding them 
with lugar. 
The female lays a great number of eggs; they are 
round, very fmall, and of a dirty-white colour; they are 
hatched in the ground, where they are laid in a heap. 
Frilch afl’erts, (Inf. ii. 22.) that the young, when firlt 
hatched.
