Darwin compliments ARW's papers published in the Proceedings of the Zoological Society of London and in the Journal of the Royal Geographical Society on geographical distribution in the Malay Archipelago.
Darwin agrees with Hooker's comments about ARW in Hooker's letter of 6 Oct 1865. Hooker's letter he describes ARW as: "... not a man of large sympathies, nor very charitable I think, & is certainly awfully cold & dry at times; yet he is essentially large minded, & very able".
Darwin refers to ARW's "On the phenomena of variation and geographical distribution as illustrated by the Papilionidae of the Malayan region".
Refers to ARW letters that Darwin had forwarded to Hooker. Criticises ARW for saying that Scientific men are afraid to say what they think.
Hooker remarks that ARW has "turned table turner".
