Mr. Bowker sends me the following interesting remarks on this "Hermit" 

 Skipper (as he styles it) ; " A curious fellow ; only found on the rocky 

 banks of a forest stream ; in the most gloomy dark corners, where you 

 would only expect to find a spider or a frog, he will bolt out like a shot 

 and settle on the face of a rock under a bunch of moss or ferns : rare 

 January."
