Sobre este artículo
London: Parker, 8, October, 1836. Fine. Small folio, 2 pp.; woodcut illustration, disbound.
An illustrated two-page description of the platypus which, although based on field observations of one Mr. Bennet, still demonstrates the lack of understanding of this unique creature: "It is now a clearly-ascertained fact, that the young are suckled by their mother, and, consequently, it is not at all probable that they are hatched from eggs".
