Synonyms: Peripatus biolleyi, by original designation (Bouvier, 1902b: 258); Epiperipatus biolleyi (Clark, 1913); (Peck, 1975: 345).
In one of those rotten logs [Biolley] discovered the pretty, brick colored [original Spanish: color de ladrillo] Peripatus that carries his name (Tristan Fernandez, 1926, p.
The species falls in the Peripatus Caribean group (Fuhrmann, 1912), meaning that it has three foot papillae (two anterior and one posterior).
Placement in the Caribbean Group, genus Peripatus: The new species, P.
The distribution of dorsal papillae in the new species does not fit the old definition of Peripatus and Epiperipatus made by Peck (1975), but the type is similar to Epiperipatus (all of one type, Peck 1975).
solorzanoi (1.1.1) is different from all confirmed and unconfirmed species of Peripatus (as detailed by Read 1988a, b); and it is also different from the other Costa Rican onychophorans (Morera-Brenes & Leon 1986).
