Rodriguez Ferreira, Alexandre (detail)
   
1903
Memoria sobre o peixe boy e do uso que lhe dão no Estado do Grão Pará.
Arch. Mus. Nac. Rio de Janeiro 12: 169-174.
–Repr.: Rodriguez Ferreira (1972: 59-65). A description, originally written in 1786, of manatee hunting and manatee products, and governmental regulation thereof, in the lower Amazon region of Brazil.
  It may be worth pointing out, given past misunderstandings by some translators, that the word "boy" in the title is the Portuguese word for ox (today spelled "boi"); "peixe-boi" (ox-fish) is the usual Brazilian name for the manatee.
