TitleReferee's report by George Udny Yule, on a paper 'The relation between variability and abundance shown by the measurements of the eggs of British nesting birds' by Ronald Aylmer Fisher
Date21 November 1936
DescriptionSectional Committee: Zoology

Recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London', which is less costly, although the Philosophical Transactions would be better for the tables. Suggests calrifying and standardising the notation. Refers to a quotation by Charles Darwin, which should be fully referenced.
