Agrees with JDH that Cytisus report [presumably of a large change] not sound. CD pleased because, if true, species would change too quickly.
CD coming to London.
Read JDH’s review [Hooker’s Kew J. Bot. 8 (1856): 54–64 et seq.] of Alphonse de Candolle’s Géographie botanique raisonnée [1855] long ago.
Note accompanying MS of part of chapter 11 ["Geographical distribution"] of Natural selection [1975].
CD sorry he had to leave the Hookers abruptly to catch his train.
