From W. T. Thiselton-Dyer [20 January 1879]
Summary
H. N. Moseley says [in "Notes on plants collected and observed at the Admiralty Islands", J. Linn. Soc. Lond. (Bot.) 15 (1877): 77] pigeons eject seeds in fit state for germination. He regards pigeons as providing most efficient means of transport in Malayan Archipelago.
CD’s collected notes on geographical distribution would make a good book.
