Referring to your manorandxun of November 19 regarding 

 Mr. Pittier's paper, A Century of Panama Trees, I should like 

 to go over the manuscript with you, to look up the special 

 cases you mention. 



Standley's Flora of the Panama Canal Zone is not a good 

 book for the comparison of Mr. Pittier's names, because in the 

 Canal Zone paper Standley did not follow the American Code. 

 I shall be glad to go over the manuscript with you sonetime 

 when we can get an hour or two for the job.

 Botanist.
