Robert Lawson Tait Robert Lawson Tait (1845-1899), surgeon and gynaecologist, had wide interests in biology, as the following letters show, with regard to comparative anatomy, insectivorous plants, animals' care of their young, and ferments. The devastating report of the referee on Tait's work in Letter 9 must have given Darwin much distress to communicate to him; nor is it known what body the referee worked for
