on the body folds and an unusually large number of small 
teeth on the blade of the mandible. 
This is based on a single female from Mount Basil in 
northern Haiti taken at an altitude of about 4,000 feet on 
September 9, 1934 by Dr. Darlington. 
Peripatus dominicae Pollard, var. basilensis, var. nov. 
This specimen has only 28 pairs of legs and a single 
large embryo which we have been able to remove by dissec- 
tion shows the same number. The sex of the embryo can- 
not be determined and may of course be male, but the female 
shows that this form has an unusually small number of legs. 
As indicated in the key this variety is distinguishable 
from the preceding forms by the arrangement of the prim- 
ary integumentary papillae. 
Peripatus dominicae Pollard, var. darlingtoni, var. nov. 
This is represented by two females and one male from 
Massif de la Hotte in the southwestern peninsula of Haiti 
taken between Camp Perrion and Mafin at an elevation of 
about 3,000 feet. The locality is near that where the variety 
lachauxensis was taken, but at a higher altitude and conse- 
quently in the moist rain forest belt. It differs from that 
form by the arrangement of the primary papillae as set 
forth in the preceding key and from the variety basilensis 
which it resembles more closely by the greater number of 
legs in the female.
