8vo Pamphlets

454. Scott on crossing vars of self-[illeg] Verbascum

[Variation 2d ed. 2: 84: "Mr. J. Scott has given me the results of a series of experiments on Verbascum, made by him in the Botanic Gardens of Edinburgh.17 He repeated some of Gärtner's experiments on distinct species, but obtained only fluctuating results, some confirmatory, the greater number contradictory; nevertheless these seem hardly sufficient to overthrow the conclusion arrived at by Gärtner from experiments tried on a larger scale.
17 The results have since been published in 'Journ. Asiatic Soc. of Bengal,' 1867, p. 145."]

455 Mantegazza on consanguineous marriages perhaps just refer to
