To J. D. Hooker 17 April [1865]
Summary
On Lubbock’s plans.
Visited by Antoine Auguste Laugel.
Guessed right on Bentham’s "Planchon".
Much struck by Thomson’s article on nomenclature [see 4812]; importance of this subject.
Sorry best scientists read so little; few read any long papers.

Summary
Congratulates AG on the "grand news of Richmond".
Still interested in dimorphism and would welcome new cases.

Would like seed of AG’s dimorphic Plantago.
