John Murray an Ernst Haeckel, Edinburgh, 28. September 1894

32 Palmerston Place,

Edinburgh.

28 September 1894.

Dear Haeckel

Can you tell me anything about specimens of sponges mentioned in the enclosed letter from Günther? I can not find that any specimens were returned to me. I suppose they would be mounted as microscopic specimens if they were.

I hope you and your family are very well. I have now returned here and am about to settle down to finish the last Challenger volume which I hope will || be published about Xmas.

With best remembrances to all friends at Jena.

Yours sincerely

John Murray.

My dear Murray

Haeckel described in the Challenger Report a very interesting family of sponges Ammoconidae with 3 genera and 5 species (pp. 23‒31). Of these types we have not received a recap. I hope you will help us to get from him a fairly representative material of the types of this family.

Have you heard about the decision of the Scotch Secretary to Fishery board. I was in || hopes the matter would besettled before the recess. I received from his secretary a very formal acknowledgment of the receipt of my letter.

Yours very truly

Günther
