Abstract
The muscles of the dorsal body wall of Peripatopsis moseleyi respond to acetylcholine at a concentration of 3 x 10-6 This contraction is enhanced by previous treatment with eserme and it not inhibited by either atropine or curare. Adrenaline produces no contraction.
Within the limits of our present knowledge these muscles resemble, in their responses to drugs, those of the chaetopod annelids and differ from those of crustaceans, myriapods and insects.
