X STUDIES IN SEEDS AND FRUITS 



these pages may be In a position to assist me in this inquiry, 

 either by taking up the search themselves, or by lending me, 

 for purposes of specific determination, any seeds in their 

 possession, or by supplying information concerning collections 

 of these seeds in the hands of private persons or in museums, 

 or in giving me references to any literature (whether in the 

 press or in scientific publications) dealing with the matter. 

 Any materials left in my possession would subsequently, with 

 the donor's permission, be distributed amongst the large 

 museums.
