“Like to Like”—a Fundamental Principle in Bionomics

Abstract

THE following letter has been intrusted to me for seeing through the press, and therefore I deem it desirable to state that it does not constitute the writer's reply to Mr. Wallace's criticism of his paper on “Divergent Evolution.” This reply, as previously stated (NATURE, vol. xl. p. 645), will be published by him on some future occasion.
