Fredrik Hasselquist : Iter Palestinum

'In examining a fig which we had found at our last going ashore, we found in the fruit a "Cynips", very like, if not exactly the same species as "Cynips sycomori", Linn., described by Hasselquist in his Iter Palestinum, a strong proof of the fact that figs must be impregnated by means of insects, though indeed that fact wanted not any additional proofs.'

Century: 1700-1799     Reader/Listener/Group: Joseph Banks      Print: Book
