The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by William Palmer Wynne, on a paper 'Cyanogensis in Plants, Part III. On Phaseolunation, the Cyanogenetic Glucoside of Phaeolus Lunatus' by Wyndham Rowland Dunstan and Thomas A Henry

Reference number: RR/16/43

Date: June 1903

Description

Sectional Committee: Physics and Chemistry

Not recommended for publication in Philosophical Transactions, finds the paper more suited for the Proceedings. If published in Philosophical Transactions is should appear in full and without modification. Does not discuss illustrations. But for the fact that two papers on similar lines have already appeared in the 'Philosophical Transactions', he would recommend the present communication be printed in Proceedings. The earlier papers though of much interest, in his opinion were hardly of sufficient importance for the Transactions and unless the present paper is the last in this series, he thinks it would be as well to intimate to the authors that communications such as this do not represent the distinct step in the advancement of knowledge which warrants publication in Philosophical Transactions.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1903].
