To Anton Dohrn 16 April and 9 August 1874
Summary
Has written to J. Murray to have account of the Zoological Station inserted in the Murray guidebook.
The circular about the Station has been printed; some have already signed.
Received R. Kossman’s paper on Anelasma ["Untersuchungen über die durch Parasitismus hervorgerufenen Umbildungen in der Familie der Pedunculata", Verh. Phys.-med. Ges. Würz. N. F. 5 (1874): 129–57]. The case is the most interesting ever recorded of gradation, i.e., from an animal with a stomach to one with roots like a plant.
Delighted he will examine the complemental males of Scalpellum.
