[The former occurrence of the dugong in Chinese waters.]
China Jour. (Shanghai) 22(2): 81-82. Feb. 1935.
–Comments on the foregoing article by G. M. Allen (1935); questions the occurrence of the dugong in China. Also discusses the accounts of Read (1931) and Arthur Adams (1870). I consider Sowerby's identification of the dugong with Read's (1931: 52) "sea animal" too tenuous.
