May 25. 1878
My dear Sir,
The living beettles & the cooccoons were found in a small paper packet containing the seeds.1 Those from which the beetles had emerged were much broken & the larvæ had evidently attacked some of the other seeds. I am sorry to say that some of the injured ones were thrown away. I am glad that you are going to draw up a paper from Fritz Müller’s letters2
Yours sincerely | Ch. Darwin
