Note for Mr. Darwin relative to his addition to Struthiolaria ornata App. p. 12.
I see no objection to this addition being inserted, provided that the fact of Mr. Cuming having found a living species of Struthiolaria at Arica be given on the authority of Mr. Cuming himself and not on mine.1
Mem: In my opinion the latin of Darwin is Darvinius—that of Sowerby— Soverbius—as w is not a latin letter—Mr Darwin must use his own discretion.2
I percieve Mr Darwin has altered the spelling of Navedad to Navidad— it is a subject with which I am entirely unacquainted & only mention it for Mr Darwin’s consideration.
Trigonocelia p. 4. The observation may properly stand as it is.3
