The genus Boreviulisoma Brolemann, 1928 — an Iberian-N African outlier of a mainly tropical tribe of millipedes (Diplopoda: Polydesmida: Paradoxosomatidae) Author Reboleira, Ana Sofia P. S. Author Enghoff, Henrik text Zootaxa 2013 3646 5 516 528 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3646.5.2 69a887a6-9b76-4c2e-af24-111174bdacf9 1175-5326 222748 649D8424-F543-4489-B025-E8006D1EEB52 Genus Boreviulisoma Brolemann, 1928 Synonym Liliputia Attems, 1952 Included species: B. liouvillei Brolemann, 1928 (the type species) B. badium (Attems, 1952) B. barrocalense n. sp. Brolemann (1928) characterised his new genus Boreviulisoma as follows (translated from French): “This genus is very similar to Duseviulisoma [= Scolodesmus ], with which it shares the gonopods. The gonopod coxae are shorter than usual in strongylosomatids [= paradoxosomatids], but the telopodite consists of the same parts; the length of the trunk [=prefemorite + femorite] is equal to that of the branches [=solenophore and solenomere]; the latter, although showing the same projections as D. scutigerinum Porat , are very imperfectly divided; the efferent canal runs the well-known course, i.e., it shows an anterior torsion of 90° before entering the seminal branch [=solenomere]”. The principal differences consist in the total absence of sternal differentiations in the male, in the dimensions of the legs which are very short and nearly similar from one end of the body to the other; and in the rugose structure of the metazona”. We have nothing to add to Brolemann’s diagnosis of Boreviulisoma , except that leg length and metazonal rugosity are hardly significant characters at the genus level.
