My dear McLachlan1

Many thanks for your corrections & suggestions. I think you overlooked that I had said almost exactly what you say about Matthew’s Trichopherygidae &c. but I have now said it even more strongly. It is necessary to read the whole chapter to see the bearing of the facts. I shall have the pleasure of sending you a copy of the book when completed[.]

Yours faithfully| Alfred R. Wallace [signature]

McLachlan, Robert (1837-1904). British entomologist.
