Polydesmida: (suborder Dalodesmidea, family uncertain): Noteremus

The two endemic, H+19 Noteremus live in the same part of Tasmania, but at opposite extremes of habitat: N. summus at 1100-1300 m on top of Mt Weld, N. infimus in the dark in caves in the Junee-Florentine karst. N. summus is the largest H+19 polydesmidan in Tasmania.
