On the Various Contrivances by Which British and Foreign Orchids are Fertilised by Insects: And on the Good Effect of Intercrossing - Cambridge Library Collection - Darwin, Evolution and Genetics
Charles Darwin
First published in 1862 to support Darwin's claims about the evolutionary importance of 'intercrossing', this study argues that orchids benefit from cross-pollination and that the intricate shape of their flowers evolved so as to facilitate this. It includes a brief explanation of botanical terms and is illustrated with 34 woodcuts.
