19/2/80.

Obgleich Ihre N. 790 sehr vertrocknet war, lieber Herr Tepper, ist es mir doch gelungen, deren Namen zu bestimmen; es ist Bentham ( DC). Ich erinnere nicht, ob ich diese Pflanze bereits von Ihnen hatte.

Ihr

Ferd. von Mueller.

19/2/80

Although your no. 790 was very shrivelled, dear Mr Tepper, yet I have succeeded in determining its name; it is Bentham ( DC). I do not remember whether I already had this plant from you.

Your

Ferd. von Mueller
