Achilophilus monoporus n. sp. (PL XX, fig. 482 ; text-figs. 53-57.) Pale yellow, the head-plate a little or not at all darker. Length 38 mm., fairly broad ; <^ with 49-55, $ with 55 pairs of legs. Head- plate (text-fig. 57) longer than wide, the greatest width in the middle, with uniform polygonal reticulation. No frontal sulcus. Antennae filiform, tapering ; the basal joints with two whorls of long bristles, and short hairs gradually increasing in number ; the distal joints with short hairs only. Clypeus (text-fig. 53) with polygonal reticulation, the meshes large, the clypeal area round, finely punctate or gran- ular, with some weak bristles ; more bristles laterally. The in- ferior clypeal margin blunt, triangular, and supporting the large fulcra, with a strong branch directed medially. The other parts of the labrum com- pletely wanting. The coxae of the first maxillae (text-fig. 54) fused ; the inner coxal processes unusually short and broad, with some long bristles ; without lateral lobes. Telopodite distinctly 2-jointed, the lateral lobe large, smooth (not spined), the base broad, tapering. Terminal joint with some long bristles. The median suture of the coxae of the second maxillae persisting. No lateral or inner coxal processes, the claw simple (text-fig. 55). The basal plate broad, extending to the sides of the body, the sides convex. From above only a small triangular piece of the maxillipedes is visible. The maxillipedes (text-fig. 56) do not reach the frontal margin. No chitinous lines and no inner Text-fig. 53.—Achilophilus monoporus Att. Clypeus and Please note that these images are extr
