My Dear Haeckel

My best thanks for sending the Sagitta on to Grassi, but you have not yet sent. me the account of the carriage, nor have I yet heard from D^r Grassi that they have arrived. I expect soon to hear from him. I am very || glad to hear that you are finding some good things in the Triton collection, and that your Challenger plates and reports are progressing.

I send you to-day some more Triton and Kt Errant^a preparations and a box with preparations from H. B. Brady, prepaid. The following is the || position of the stations you ask for Triton

With the best remembrances to all your family and all friends at Jena.

Yours as ever
