CORFE VIEW,

PARKSTONE,

DORSET.

August 28th. 1891

G.A. Boulenger Esq.1

Dear Sir

If you are now at the Museum can you kindly send me the correct numbers to insert in the passage overleaf as peculiar Palaearctic genera.

Exact accuracy is not necessary & genera which just enter other regions with one sp. may be considered peculiar. The printers are waiting for the [2] sheet, so I shall be glad if you can give me the approximate corrections at once.

Yours very truly | Alfred R. Wallace [signature]
