Very closely related to A. couloni and resembling it in most particulars but distinguished by several differences of the gono- pods as shown by comparison of the accompanying figure with that drawn by Carl for A. couloni.^ Description. Largest female 48 mm long, 6 mm broad, strongly convex, parallel sided; the males smaller and more flattened, the sides not noticeably converging caudad, almost as nearly parallel as in the Fig. 17. Gonopod. Amphelictogon propinquu

Gonopod. Amphelictogon propinquus. a, Carina of segment 9 of male; h, Body colored as in other specimens from the Cueva del Aura and identified as A. couloni; a broad, white, mid-dorsal band continuous from the front margin of segment 1 to the apex of the last segment, the band constricted at the middle of the first segment but elsewhere of uniform width, on either side of the median band the color of both sub- segments is dark brown and on the metazonite extends more or less onto the carinae, sometimes including all but the posterior corner; head entirely dark brown, the labral region scarcely lighter than the front or vertex; antennae light red; legs with outer joints faintly tinged with pink. Segments seldom with a transverse .depression indicated on the metazonites of either sex; lateral carinae prominent, those of segments > Rev.
