Note de M. E. L. Bouvier.
Peripatus is a low form of articulated animal hitherto known only in Central
America-'and the West Indies, the Cape of Good Hope, Australia, and New Zealand.
The author shows that it also occurs in Gabun, and is there of a form intermediate
between that of Central America and South Africa. The bearing of this fact on the
former distribution of land and sea is of some importance.
Zoogeography. P.R. Dublin S. 8 (1897): 439-468. Carpenter.
The Geographical Distribution of Dragon-flies. By George H. Carpenter, b.sc.
With Map.
The map shows the approximate range of dragon-fly faunas, and closely corresponds
to the faunal regions deduced from the study of the distribution of mammalia.

The Geographical Distribution of the Actiuaria of Jamaica. By J. E. Duerden,
B.SC.
This subject is treated as bearing on the question of a former connection between the
Atlantic and Pacific across Central America. A considerable amount of agreement
has been found between the Pacific coast actinarians of Central America and those of
Jamaica.
