Extract

The Myriapods recorded in this paper were collected in Mesopotamia—mostly at and around Amara on the Tigris—and in the neighbouring uplands of N.W. Persia, by W. K. Evans, B.Sc., Edinburgh, late Captain R.A.M.C.

They are referable to seventeen forms: of these eight are new and three could not be identified owing to want of appropriate material. Amongst the novelties two specimens deserve special mention as belonging to an lulid group, the known representatives of which are very few. The new genus Calyptophyllum has been erected for these.
