Thanks HG for specimen of Mitella.
CD has tried effects of carbonate of ammonia on chlorophyll grains, but his observations are hardly trustworthy. He finds stooping over the microscope affects his heart.
Edmond Perrier of Paris would be pleased to receive earthworms collected in Venezuela.
CD fears that he exaggerated the importance of worms in forming ledges on hillsides [see Earthworms, p. 278 ff.].
Reminds CD of three cards JLA sent in February for CD to sign and date and write his good wishes on.
Very anxious that WTVD’s essay [on Syrian street dogs, see 13710] should be published. Has sent it to Zoological Society with a few introductory remarks [see 13753].
Thanks for his Catalogue of the Chilean plants.
