Abstract

NATURE for July 29 (p. 288) mentions that Peripatus has been taken at Demerara. It may interest some of the readers of NATURE to know that in January 1881 I captured a single specimen of Peripatus in the low, damp woods at Breves, on the island of Marajó, mouth of the Amazon. The specimen is now in the entomological collections of Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y.
