Acad, imper. sci. St. Peterburg, 1840, 7, p. 24; Kraepelin Revis. Scolop., 1903, p. 179; Verhoeff, Bronn's Thierreich, 1907, 6, p. 50. Rhoda Meinert, Proc. Amer. philos. soc, 1886, 23, p. 188.

Two species, the only valid ones known, occur in Brazil. Scolopendropsis bahiensis Brandt. Bull. sci. Acad, imper. sci. St. Peterburg, 1840, 7, p. 24; Kraepelin, Revis. Scolop., 1903, p. 171; Brolemann, Cat. Myr. Bresil, 1909, p. 31. Rhoda thayeri Meinert, Proc. Amer. philos. soc, 1886, 23, p. 188. Pithopus inermis Pocock, Ann. mag. nat. hist., 1891, ser. 6, 7, p. 223, pi. 5, f. 5; Kraepelin, Revis. Scolop., 1903, p. 172. Scolopendropsis thayeri Brolemann, Cat. Myr. Bresil, 1909, p. 32. Localities.— State of Bahia: Bahia, Iguarassu (the type locality of inermis (Pocock)). State of Para: Santarem (the type locality of thayeri (Mein.)). Kraepelin suggests the identity of thayeri Meinert with calcaratus Pocock; but an examination of the type of thayeri shows that it is the same as the inermis of Pocock and that both are the same as Brandt's bahiensis which has long priority. Through probable error twenty- three pairs of legs were attributed to Brandt's species, although the not very probable suggestion has been made that the species is di- morphic, having some individuals with twenty-three and others w
