Abstract
DR. VON KENNEL, in a note on the “Development of Peripatus,” which appeared in a recent number of the Zoologischer Anzeiger, and has been translated and printed in your columns, has thrown some doubt on the accuracy of the observations recorded in the late Prof. Balfour's memoir on the Anatomy and Development of Peripatus capensis (Quart. Journ. Micro. Sci., April, 1883). We trust that you will give us, as the editors of that memoir, this opportunity of making a few brief statements in reply to the somewhat unusually outspoken criticisms contained in his preliminary note.
