Much regrets that ARW cannot attend on Monday.
Proposes to include a paper on the Hymenoptera of the Eastern Archipelago at a meeting of the Linnean Society. Will ARW read his own paper on the subject that evening.
Wonders if there are any Lepidoptera species that are unique to the British Isles, referring to Otto Staudinger's catalogue of European Lepidoptera [Catalog der Lepidopteren Europa's und der angrenzenden Länder, 1861; Catalog der Lepidopteren des europäischen Faunengebiets, 1871].
Invites ARW to visit him as he can answer his questions more satisfactorily in person.
Is away from home without his books but has looked through ARW's proof.
