Other Species of the Family. 
1. Brachypauropus hamiger Latzel (op. cit. 1884, p. 30). This 
species is sharply distinguished from Br. superbus by two characters 
mentioned by Latzel. He says that the upper antennal branch „ist 
nur wenig schmåler, aber deutlich kiirzer als der andere [the 
lower one]“, and he describes the setæ on the trunk as hamuli“

Family 3: Eurypauropodidæ. 
PI. VI, %. 4 a—4 m. 
Diagnosis. The head is concealed beneath the first tergal 
plate, which is pioduced anteriorly and shaped as a large semi- 
ciiculai scutum; the dorsal surface of the head is almost naked, 
hairs being present only near the anterior and at the lateral mar¬ 
gin. The teiga of the trunk are six in number, corresponding to 
those in the fam. Pauropodidæ ; they are large, firmly chitinized, 
without real hairs or setæ, but adorned with spines or protube- 
lances. The tactile setæ are inserted on the membranous wall 
below the terga; no setæ or hairs are present near the tactile setæ. 
Ihe anal segment is concealed beneath the produced tergum of the 
last segment of the trunk. The legs terminate in a long middle 
claw with the pad rather or quite rudimentary, and (at least) on 
the front side of the middle claw a very small supplementary claw 
without pad. 
Remarks. The diagnosis is rather meagre, and especially the 
description of the legs is imperfect. But having examined only 
one species, which presents differences from E. spinosus Ryder, E. 
omatus Latz., etc. as to the number of joints in the legs and 
piobablv in the structure of the pseudonychium, I have been unable 
to sa} more. I suppose that a few other characters will be added 
to the diagnose when se veral species have been examined. In the 
form examined by myself the hairs on coxa and trochanter (fig. 41) 
are very different from those in the two other families: both hairs
