elongate, three-jointed, and articulated to end of the elongate, narrow, 
second basal joint ; the outer and inner branches being thus widely apart 
(fig. 7). Fifth pair one-branched, narrow, elongate, and furnished with 
one seta near the middle of the inner margin, three on the outer margin, 
and three at the apex (fig. 8). Caudal stylets long and narrow, being 
equal to one and a half times the length of the last abdominal segment, 
aud each furnished with a stout apical seta and a few minute hairs. 
Hlabitat.—Vicinity of Inchkeith. Rare.

gate,cylindrical. All the segments, except the first, furnished with a fringe 
of small hairs around, but a little in front of, the posterior margin. Anterior

joints ; the second and last joints are longer than any of the others, the 
fifth is very small. The proportional lengths of all the joints are shown 
by the formula :— 5 
Posterior antennz three-jointed. A small secondary branch bearing 
a single apical seta springs from the end of the first joint. Inner 
branches of the first pair of thoracic feet, which are composed of two 
sub-equal joints, reach to about the middle of the second joint of the 
outer branches, and bear two short apical sete. Inner branches of 
the fourth pair, which are also two-jointed, shorter than the first joint 
of the elongate outer branches. The inner portion of the basal 
joint of the fifth pairis in the form of a shallow lobe, carrying two long 
and one short seta. Secondary joint narrow and elongate, and furnished 
with one marginal and four terminal sete. Caudal stylets slender, 
equal in length to the last abdominal segment, each with two small setze 
on the inner and one on the outer margin, and a few apical! setz. 
Habitat.—Vicinity of the Bass Rock. Rather rare.
