VII LETTERS FROM CHARLES DARWIN TO ROLAND TRIMEN (1863-1871) MY friend, Mr. Roland Trimen, Hon. M.A. (Oxon.), F.R.S., was at the Cape when Mr. Francis Darwin's great work was in course of preparation. On this account his fine series of letters has remained unpublished up to the present date. Now, with his kind consent and that of Mr. Francis Darwin, it is a great pleasure to be able to include in this memorial volume a single complete set of letters, moderate in number, but in every way most

Trimen informed him, as bearing on this suggestion, of two good-sized Noctuid moths (Egybolis vaillantina, Stoll, and Achaea chamaeleon, Guén.), abundant in Natal, where both were styled' Peach Moth'—though absolutely different in appearance—because they sucked peaches (both ripe on the tree and when fallen).

of Fritz Müller's earlier suggestion that Mimicry may be due to Sexual Selection (see pp. 127-8). I do not think that the words really bear this interpretation, but even if they do, it is obvious that a suggestion intended to be taken as a joke cannot be looked upon as a serious anticipation!
