Another very large female with 31 pairs of legs from the 
Cincinnata Coffee Plantation near Santa Marta, Colombia col- 
lected by Dr. Wm. M. Mann may be referable to this species. 
It measures fully 90 mm. in length, with dark beaded median 
dorsal line and clearly marked lateral broad dark wavy band, 
dark head and antennae and narrowly interrupted pale collar. 
The integumentary papillae are not separated by clearly marked 
grooves as in the other examples although these show in some 
places. 
Four other specimens (three collected by F. M. Gaige and 
one by W. M. Mann) are by no means typical in the arrangement 
of the integumentary papillae, but they show the characteristic 
pale collar and as they are also from the Santa Marta Moun- 
tains, Colombia are probably referable to this species. The 
papillae are very indistinctly or not at all separated by transverse 
grooves and the integumentary folds thus resemble those of P. 
(. Epiperipatus ) edwardsii and related forms. Most of these spe- 
cimens are strongly contracted which probably accounts to some 
extent for their different appearance and a larger series of well 
expanded examples will be necessary to determine to what 
extent the character separating Macroperipatus and Epiperi- 
patus may be relied upon in the classification of the species 
referred to these two groups. 
Peripatus juliformis Guilding, var danicus Bouvier. 
This form was based on a male and female from the Island 
of St. Thomas which Bouvier regarded as a variety of P. julifor- 
mis. Later Clark (Smithsonian Misc. Coll., vol. 60, No. 17, p. 4) 
has elevated this to specific rank, apparently for geographic 
reasons. 
In the present material there is a female from St. Croix, 
Virgin Islands collected by Dr. F. E. Lutz, bearing the label 
“Under rotten log, March 2, 1925.” It is now in the collection 
of the American Museum of Natural History. It agrees well 
with Bouvier’s description except that there are 32 instead of 
33 pairs of legs, a common number for Jamaican examples of 
the typical juliformis. The body color is very dark, a rich
