especially tliose on the lower branch liave an unusually long basal 
part without transverse rings. The globulus is very large, its 
transverse diameter conspicuously longer than that of the ripper 
branch, and the stalk a little longer than broad. 
Trunk (fig. 3 b). Kather siender. — The fifth pair of tactile 
setæ is rather short, only somewhat longer than the breadth of the 
segment, very thin with faint pnbescence. The fourth pair is slightly 
shorter than the fifth and similar to it. The third pair is rather 
little shorter than the fourth, increasing conspicuously from the 
base to outside the middle and from thence tapering; the pubes- 
cence is short and vertical. — The posterior setæ on the penulti- 
mate segment and the setæ on the last segment are very short, 
cylindrical. 
Anal Segment (fig. o c). In my specimen the sternum over- 
leaches consideiably the tergum both on the sides and especially 
posteriorly. The tergum is almost emarginate; its three pairs of 
setæ are arranged in an almost straight transverse row; the sub- 
median setæ are much doser to each other than to those of the 
intermediate pair, which are moderately remote from the lateral setæ; 
all thiee paiis aie thin, cylindrical, short, the lateral pair almost 
shorter than the intermediate pair and about one fifth as long as 
the breadth of the segment. — The styli are short and thick, 
stiongly clavate, about twice as long' as broad, curved and directed 
backwards and strongly inwards; the end is cut otf. — The sternum 
Avith thiee paiis of setæ; the posterior pair is very long, nearly 
foui times as long as the intermediate dorsal setæ; the lateral pair 
is slightly longer than the lateral dorsal pair; the anterior setæ 
are very short, inserted near the base of the sternum, and the di¬ 
stance between them is three times shorter than between the po¬ 
sterior setæ. The anal plate is somewhat broader than long, its 
posterior angles are rounded, the hind margin is emarginate and 
from it project two branches, somewhat distant at the base, con- 
verging behind, thin, not clavate and about as long as the plate.. 
Legs. They are short and increase very little in length po~
