Bettongia penicillata, 1841/1842, 1852

 File — Box: 32, Folder: 635

Dates

  • Creation: 1841/1842, 1852

Physical Description

Very fragile. 40 x 55cm pencil

General

23 reference sketches, plus lengthy descriptive notes on behavior, both sides of a sheet ruled into 4 columns; the 2 specimens on the Mammals plate cited look quite like 2 of the sketches. It has been suggested that the notes are by Richter, but the handwriting is different from that in Gould 605 with Richter's signature.
