Letter from Patrick Alfred Buxton, on a paper 'Competition for food and allied phenomena in sheep-blowfly populations' by G C Ullyett to D C Martin, Assistant Secretary of the Royal Society

Reference number: RR/70/240

Date: 19 January 1948

Description

It does not require shortening but some of the long tables should be filed in typescript form in various institutions. Suitable institutions that would accept this sort of material would be the British Museum (Natural History) and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. The Royal Society would accept typescript data too, assuming that they publish it. He won't be able to read the paper again as he is going to West Africa and won't be back for a few months.

[Published in Philosophical Transactions B, 1950].

Endorsed on recto as received 20 January 1948.
