Abstract
IN connexion with the interesting and entertaining review1 by Sir D'Arcy Thompson of Dr. Barbour's book "A Naturalist at Large", it is worth putting on record that the Zoo has had two specimens of the Páca rána (Dinomys branickii) from South America during the past twenty years. The first was presented by Mr. Herbert Whitley in June 1925 and the second was purchased from a dealer in September 1929.
