It affords me much pleasure, dear Prof M'Coy, to send you some additional fossils from Mr Wintle, received this day,1 also the larva of the galls of Acacia pycnantha, which however has perished already. It seems to be quite different from the larva of a [Cynips].2 Perhaps you would afford obligingly your learned information on these subjects.
Always your
regardful
