Excerpt from Myriapoda of North America During this period two other papers appeared. In 1853 Charles Girard published in an appendix to the Report Of Marcy's Exploring Expedition a description of Scolopendra heros, the large centipede of the Southwest, with plate, together with two species Of J ulus supposed to be new. Three years later Sager published brief and indefinite de scriptions Of three new species, giving neither distinguishing characters to his species nor the localities from which he Obtained his specimens. The first four decades since Say's first publication thus found us with a known Myriapod fauna of about thirty nominal species.
