[OGD] good memory !

[viateur . boutot]

icones wrote : "Look in Wallace, I think it was 1867."

reference is :
WALLACE, Alfred Russel
1867            "Creation by law" in Quarterly Journal of Science, 4 [n° 16] : 470-488.

**********
note : Wallace's depiction of the moth pollinating Angraecum sesquipedale, although prophetic, was speculative.

Xanthopan morgani praedicta was named by Rothschild et Jordan, in 1903.
