I do not at present want
your notes on carnivora. I
will let you know when I do.

If you have any spe-
cimens of Diptera, I can have
them easily determined by
Baron Ostensacken, Russian
Secretary of Ligation; now here.
I shall also send a lot of
Hymenoptera before long to M.
de Saussure at Geneva, Switzer-
land, who is working up N.
American species

Dr. Morris of Baltimore
promises to study Hemiptera
soon, and Mr. Uhler of
Balt. is working at Neurop-
tera - so there is some chance
yet for Entomology

Ever Yours
