16/2/81

The new volume of your R.S. has reached me, dear Prof. Tate, and best Thanks for it. I am now just passing the fungs through the press (a mere index with geogr. notes.)

B81.13.12, pp. 75-104.

Perhaps you will extract out of the 6 indices what belongs to S.A.

B80.11.01 and B81.13.12 together comprise six indices to different orders of Australian acotyledonous plants, plus a final, supplementary list. Tate (1881) is the suggested extracted SA list, with comments.

We can then readily add hereafter.

Excuse me that I did not call on you again, as the Exhib.

International Exhibition, Melbourne, 1880-1.

kept me so busy. I shall look forward with great pleasure to the enjoyment of a new visit from you

Regardfully your

Ferd. von Mueller

What splendid additions made by you. Terebratulaceous fossils!
