To Gaston de Saporta 24 December 1877
Summary
Such honours as proposal for election to Institut affect CD very little.
GdeS’s idea that dicotyledonous plants were not developed until sucking insects evolved is a splendid one. The suggestion that fertilisation of the surviving members of the most ancient dicotyledons should be studied is a good one. CD hopes GdeS will keep it in mind.
