Abstract
A new species of Biton from the Kalahari is described. Some observations are made on the ctenidial hairs and the tarsal spines of Biton schreineri (Purcell) and its relationship with Broomiella lineata (Pocock). Comments are made on the distribution of Solpuga monteiroi Pocock and the systematic position of ‘Solpuga grindleyi n. sp.’ Brown.
