Abstract
IT is with much diffidence that I take up my pen to reply to the letter of Sir Ray Lankester, which appears in NATURE of November 21. I have been brought up to venerate Sir Ray as the leader of British zoology, and if I cannot claim him as my zoological parent, I can at least regard him as my zoological uncle, for between him and my teacher and friend Adam Sedgwick there always reigned complete sympathy and co-operation.
