24/12/79.

I gladly accept your offer, dear Mr Dyer,

Letter not found.

to send me pencil-sketches of , E. patellaris & E. orbifolia, of both of which I have no material here. It will enable me to institute the needful comparisons then, when the opportunities arise.

Very regardfully your

Ferd. von Mueller.

If it was not too much trouble E. fibrosa could also perhaps be drawn.

MS annotation in an unknown hand: 'Tracings sent March 15 80'.

But I have now found the original specimens of E. siderophloia.

See M to J. Hooker, 9 July 1879 (in this edition as 79-07-09b).
