DCP-LETT-10678

From:
Henry Nottidge Moseley
To:
Charles Robert Darwin
Date:
[after 17 Nov 1876]
Source of text:
DAR 171: 253
Summary:

Finds he does not have a duplicate of the Japanese natural history book. Sends other volumes of grotesque pictures.

He can show F. W. Hutton erred in calling Peripatus novae zelandiae self-fertilising; suspects J. F. Bullar has made a similar error on parasitic Isopoda. They both mistook spermatophores for testes.
