, was well developed. I tried to make out the names of plants, and collected all sorts of things, shells, seals, franks, coins, and minerals. The passion for collecting, which leads a man to be a systematic naturalist, a virtuoso or a miser, was very strong in me, and was clearly innate, as none of my sisters or brother ever had this taste. This 'passion for collecting' continued through the voyage of HMS Beagle (December 1831 October 1836) and beyond, but following the voyage it turned from

The Plant Notes During the latter part of the Beagle's voyage, Darwin and his servant Syms Covington (1816? 61) compiled a series of lists of collections of the various groups of organisms gathered by Darwin. The disposition of these lists and the collections they describe are discussed in Porter (1985). Sulloway (1982, 1983) has elegantly worked out that the lists were compiled between 18 June and 12 August 1836, while the Beagle sailed between the Cape of Good Hope and Pernambuco, Brazil

Entomology on the Beagle voyage On the Beagle voyage entomology took its place with the collection of other animals and plants and all were secondary to geology. Darwin was particularly interested in collecting the smaller, less known, species of insects and wrote to Henslow from Rio de Janeiro on 18 May 1832 (see Barlow, 1967: 55) I am now collecting fresh-water land animals: if what was told me in London is true viz that there are no small insects in the collections from the Tropics.

Darwin's Abstract of John Macculloch 1837 Proofs and Illustrations of the Attributes of God Transcribed and edited by Paul H. Barrett After the Beagle voyage it was Darwin's practice to make marginal annotations in books which he owned. For books not his own, if important, he wrote abstracts on separate sheets of paper. The following manuscripts are abstracts of one volume of a 3-volume work by John Macculloch (1773−1835), Proofs and Illustrations of the Attributes of God from the Facts and
