XII. MYRIOPODA AND PROTOTRACHEATA. 
The Prototracheata command a great deal of attention and Bouvier has 
made more important contributions to our knowledge of this interesting 
group. Willey’s paper on the anatomy and development of Peripatus 
novce-britannice expands the preliminary account of this species published 
last year. 
The genera proposed in 1895 by Pocock for the Prototracheata seem to 
be fairly well adopted now although opinion is somew T hat divided as to 
according them sub- or full generic value. To the three genera defined b v 
him Purcell adds now a fourth, Opisthopatus, founded on some specimens 
obtained from South Africa. And to these four genera, or subgenera, a 
fifth must also be added viz. Paraperipatus to contain Willey’s Nev 
Zealand specimens. Willey himself appears to regard this as a subgenus 
only. Our knowledge of Peripatus therefore shows signs of rapid advance 
in the immediate future.
