A CANADIAN EVALLJAPYGIDAE (DIPLURA) - EVA LLJAPYX-SAUNDERSI N-SP DICELLURATA GENAVENSIA .21.

Evalljapyx saundersi n. sp. is described, based on an adult male from Vancouver (B.C.). The E. sonoranus Silv. (= hubbardi [Cook]) recorded from Vancouver Island by SAUNDERS (1946) is certainly a missidentifica tion, hubbardi beeing localized in Arizona and all the other species o f Evalljapyx are until now only known from the South-Western States of USA, the Equator and some Caribbean Islands. The author is convinced that SAUNDERS' specimen belong to the new species which is close to E. ombris Smith from California. Four chetotaxic patterns are proposed f or the seven first abdominal segments.
