BRUES: A NEW PERIPATUS FROM COLOMBIA. 



379 



One unusually large specimen (Plate 2, fig. o-G) has the periphery of 

 the papillae unusually Avell defined by a series of irregular non-pig- 

 mented lines a\ hich form a noticeable network along the folds. It is 

 possible that there may be one or more varietal or subspecific forms of 

 c'dwardsii that might be distinguished. However, a close study of 

 the material on hand, supplemented by other specimens in the M. C. Z. 

 and in the American IMuseum of Natural History does not seem to 

 offer any characters of sufficient constancy to warrant any such 

 division.

One specimen, No. 49 of the present collection (M. C. Z. No. 245), 

 seems undoubtedly to belong to this species which has hitherto been 

 reported only from Guiana, It is not very typical but agrees well
