From A. F. Batalin 29 January 1879
Summary
Thanks for CD’s interest in his paper on plant movements ["Über die Ursachen der periodischer Bewegungen der Blumen und Laubblätter", Flora 56 (1873): 433–41, 449–55]. AFB concentrated on clear cases, though he knows there are others.
Experiments on function of movement: Mimosa leaves, held so they cannot move, die.
