of course aberrant genera must necessarily have few species. Will it not do to take all groups, say whether you call them small or great genera, or a families or alliance, yet then an aberrant include less species even than genera, a fraction less than Families for an average.— But then if this be done, it may be said that they are aberrant merely because they have few species: thus this alone make them aberrant.— Nevertheless I still think so does Bentham, that there is something in it

The Complete Work of Charles Darwin Online 387  Nov. 30 /54/. Bentham remarked to me in regard to his list of aberrant genera, that in fact it was scarcely possible to tell genera from Family, or latter from a higher group. (This shows by 3, 5, 4, 7 having been taken by Quinarian) I think he said the Begonia was first a genus, then when many species were found, it was corrected into a Family, with several genera.— Now this causes the greatest, scarcely superable difficulty in ascertaining
