MS annotation by Krauss: 'v. Müller Nr 527. | erhalten Dec. 1870' [received December 1870]. Many of the specimens listed duplicate others sent earlier; see M to F. Krauss, May 1869 (in this edition as 69-05-00a). See also undated list of another collection of wood specimens, dated here to April 1870 (in this edition as 70-04-00d), likewise annotated by Kraus 'Nr 527. | Ferd. v. Müller | Dec. 1870.', that apparently arrived in the same consignment from Wilhelm Sonder as the material listed here.

No letter from M to Krauss referring to this consignment has been found. Lincolnshire cleared out of Melbourne on 26 January 1870 (Argus, 27 January 1870, p. 4) and not again until 10 December (Argus, 12 December 1870, p. 4).
