Reading edition

As Mr. Sowerby has adopted the name villosus, I have followed him; though as tomentosus is used through some mistake by Leach in the text, both names have equal claims as far as priority is concerned.

In Lamarck, ‘Animaux Sans. Vert.,’ the P. villosus of Sowerby is made synonymous with Anatifa villosa of Brugière, which is certainly incorrect, although the A. villosa of this latter author is not positively known.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
