The millipede family Striariidae Bollman, 1893: I. Introduction to the family, synonymy of Vaferaria Causey with Amplaria Chamberlin, the new subfamily Trisariinae, the new genus Trisaria, and three new species (Diplopoda, Chordeumatida, Striarioidea) Author Shear, William A. text Zootaxa 2020 2020-03-30 4758 2 275 295 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.4758.2.4 a4c437e0-7983-41af-8f98-a3bd88cc2e69 1175-5326 3734456 2539ABCC-161E-44B2-BB2C-C949B1A7C94D Triasaria olympia , new species Figs. 48–54 Types: Male holotype , eight male and three female paratypes from WASHINGTON : Thurston Co. : Hospital Creek , above confluence with Skookumchuck River , N46°46.396’ , W122°35.133’ , collected 15 December 2003 , by William Leonard & Kelly McAllister , deposited in Burke Memorial Museum , University of Washington , Seattle, Washington . Etymology: The species epithet is a noun in apposition, after the city of Olympia, Washington . Diagnosis: Distinct from congeners in the form of the gonopods. The median angiocoxite anteriormost branches ( mac1, Figs. 48 , 52 ) bear a posterior array of long, thin spines not present in T. rex or T. washingtonensis , and the median branch of the lateral angiocoxite ( lac2 , Figs. 50 , 53 ) has an irregular array of spines in T. olympia such that the branch does not appear comb-like. The ninth legs ( Figs. 51 , 54 ) are much more substantially reduced and fused than in the other two species. FIGURES 43–47. Trisaria olympia . Fig. 43. Anterior end of female, lateral view. Fig. 44.

Genitalia of female, ventral view; lo, left operculum, lv, left valve, ro, right operculum, rv, right valve. Description: Male paratype from Hospital Creek. Length ca. 10 mm , greatest width 0.6 mm . Body form and secondary sexual modifications as described for genus. Gonopods ( Figs. 48–50 , 52, 53 ) robust, mesal angiocoxite 2-branched, anteriormost branch ( mac1 , Figs. 52, 53 ) longest, set laterally with long, acute spines; posteriormost branch (mac2, Fig. 53 ) smaller, blunt. Lateral angiocoxite with anteriormost branch ( lac1 , Figs. 48, 50 , 53 ) curving first laterally, then sharply posteriorly, distal part with many mesally directed, long, acute spines. Lateral angiocoxite mesal branch ( lac2 , Figs. 50 , 53 ) shorter, curved posteriorly, densely set with complex array of mesally directed spines, some branched. Lateral angiocoxite posteriormost branch ( lac3, Figs. 52, 53 ) large, blunt, simple, slightly sigmoid. Colpocoxite ( cc , Fig. 53 ) relatively small, membranous, with small, triangular teeth. Ninth legpair with all elements completely fused. Telopodite portion ( t9, Fig. 54 ) narrowed, cupped anteriorly, acute, triangular lateral tooth near apex. Coxa with no gland pore detected, with relatively small anterior lobe ( cl , Fig. 54 ). Sternal spiracle ( sp , Fig. 54 ) very large. FIGURES 48–51. Trisaria olympia . Fig. 48.
