The dugong.
Nature (London) 57(1470): 198. Dec. 30, 1897.
–Letter to the editor. Suggests that a description of "seal" flesh in the Christian Topography of Cosmas of Alexandria, a 6th-century Egyptian monk (London, Hakluyt Society, 1897), probably pertained to the dugong. Also mentions the sale in London of "potted dugong" from Queensland.
