and especially under rotten leaves and branches on a very damp 
place in „Maglevandsfaldet“: a cleft in the chalky cliff. — In 
1893 I captured a few specimens together with Koenenia, Scolo - 
pendrella etc. in woods in Calabria, viz. near Palmi (May 17.) and 
near Scilla about 1000 feet above the level of the sea (June 24.). 
Some specimens (among wliich the small male mentioned above) 
were secured near Eome by Dr. F. Silvestri. 
Distribution. The species has been established by Lubbock 
on specimens captured near London; the length of the flagella and 
hairs of the fourth joint of the antenna in his fig.. 20 shows that 
he has examined this species and not St. pubescens. As far as 
can be judged from Latzel’s description his animals, which were 
taken in Carinthia (Austria), probably belonged to St. pedunculatus. 
Berlese’s description is very imperfect, and his analytical figures, 
especially that exhibiting the anal plate, are very bad and misleading, 
but St. pedunculatus being rather common in different localities in 
Italy it is probably this species he has examined. But whether 
the animals captured by Schmidt near St. Petersburgh and Narwa 
really belonged to this species is quite impossible to say. — The 
species which has been found in England near London, in Denmark, 
in the Southern half of Italy and probably in Austria, is certainly 
widely distributed in the central and Southern parts of Europe. 
2. Stylopauropus pubescens n. sp. 
PI. I, fig. 2 a—2 e. 
Material. Two adult and contracted females. 
Head (fig. 2 a). The distance between the eyes is rather 
considerably longer than the length of an eye. — The dorsal hairs 
are all strongly clavate and very pubescent; the hairs in the three 
anterior rows and the submedian pair in the fourth row differ 
scarcely in length from those in St. pedunculatus ; the intermediate 
hairs in the fourth row are scarcely two thirds as long as an eye 
and not longer than the sublateral pair. — The surface of the
