LOOMIS: MILLIPEDS OF HISPANIOLA 21 elevated; and the gonopods with several definite differences, as refer- ence to the drawings will show. Description. Length of the largest male 21 mm., and with 42 seg- ments; largest female 22 mm. long, with 42 segments, the usual num- ber apparently. Body shaped much as in P. quadristriatus but more evenly and continuously tapering caudad from the broad fifth, sixth and seventh segments; the females indistinctly narrowed caudad from in Fig. 6. Prostemmiulus subulatus. a, Gonopods, anterior view; b, Gonopods, posterior view. In the color pattern the median light band sometimes moderately wide, sometimes as narrow as in P. quadristriatus, otherwise the color- ation is as in P. clarus. Head with the sulcus of the vertex obsolete; upper ocellus large, the lower one distinctly smaller. First segment with 3 moderately impressed striae on each side. Third segment of the males with the ventral longitudinal margin on each side only slightly raised; the corresponding margin of the fourth segment prominently raised as in P. quadristriatus but not as high. Third segment of the females with the emargination of the ventral posterior margin, adjacent to the legs, deep but much shorter than in P. quadristriatus, the posterior corner produced into a long, acute Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Harvard University.
