Description THE genus Peroderma Heller (1868) includes four species, P. cylindricum Heller,
P. branchiata Basset-Smith, P. petersi Richiardi and P. bellottii Richiardi. According
to Wilson (1917) the last two species are poorly described and certainly do not
belong to Peroderma. As Basset-Smith (1898) had only a single specimen he did
not make any attempt to study the appendages. This precludes a detailed comparison
of his species with the genotype. Brian (1906) and Wilson (1917) have
considered P. cylindricum and P. branchiata as synonymous. The object of the
present paper is not to discuss the synonymy but to give a detailed description of
P. cylindricum.
