Sends photograph.
Thanks SPW for his history of Aptychus, which makes A. D. d’Orbigny’s view [that it is a cirripede] improbable. [See Fossil Cirripedia 1: 3.]
Specimens SPW sent are very useful and interesting.
Thanks GW for his report about the rabbits at Sandon [Staffs.]. Fears case has broken down, except that it is now known that such a breed has run wild for some years. No need to send bodies since breed is so obscure.
Seeks to verify whether bulldogs have degenerated in India [see Variation 1: 37–8].

CD sends a better photo for CJM.
