Abstract
MR. W. B. HEMSLEY, who elaborated at Kew the collections made during the Challenger expedition illustrative of the floras of oceanic islands, has handed to me the following interesting letter from Dr. Guppy. The materials and notes accumulated by this skilful observer during his travels in the Western Pacific threw a good deal of light on the mode in which oceanic islands were stocked with plants, and Mr. Hemsley was able to make an advantageous use of them in discussing the collections made in the same region by Prof. Moseley.
