LINNEAN42

From:
Sir Thomas Frankland
To:
Sir James Edward Smith
Date:
21 Apr 1800
Source of text:
GB-110/JES/ADD/31, The Linnean Society of London
Summary:

He has no positive recollection of [William] Hudson's opinion on 'Ulva flavescens' and 'U. diaphana', though it appears he doubted any distinction, having only done so from size; [James] Sowerby's drawing "very bad" according to Dawson Turner. Sowerby has still not drawn the 'Fucus torrertosus' he recommended.
