This species may be at once distin- guished from the preceding by the absence of pleural pores, the shortness of the anal legs, the conspicuous ventral porous area etc. In these particulars it evidently comes close to Hirnantarium insigne, Meinert from Kooloo. But the length of the body as compared with the number of somites is very different. Thus the female of insigne is 105 mm. long and has 77 pairs of legs, while the female of doriae is 56 mm. long and has 99 pairs of Hirnantarium Doriae. Himantosoma , gen. nov. Cephalic lamina covering entirely, or almost entirely, the maxillary feet. Antennae parallel sided or incrassate ; not attenuate. Prebasal lamina concealed. Basal lamina as wide as the head, but exceedingly short, five or six times as wide as it is 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 Museo civico di storia naturale di Genova (Italy).
