Under the assumption that Ca = C([−r, 0], Sn−1(a)) is positively invariant for a > 0, two necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for an autonomous retarded functional differential equation to have a non-trivial periodic solution in Ca. Moreover, a feasible sufficient condition is given, which is better for n = 2 than that given by Dos Reis and Baroni.
