| Title | Referee's report by George Busk, on a paper 'On the impregnation of the ovum in the amphibia. (Second series, revised.) And on the direct agency of the spermatozoon' by George Newport |
| Date | 15 March 1853 |
| Description | Not recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Considers paper too long and repetitive. Paper repeats much information from the author's previous paper. New paper actually contradicts an important observation in the previous paper, which does warrant publication.
