   • 1895, Richard Lydekker, The Royal Natural History, page 224:

     The apar is mainly diurnal in its habits; and trusts for defence to its power of rolling itself into a ball, not dwelling in burrows like the members of the other genera.

     The apars are noted, indeed, for their lively and restless manners.
