From Armand de Quatrefages 18 July 1870
Summary
CD lost first round of nominations at the Académie Française to Jean-Frédéric de Brandt. QdeB and Milne-Edwards continue the battle, but CD is fiercely attacked.
Asks for complete citation of CD’s geological work on South America because it has to be shown he did more than collect objects.
