This day, dear Prof. Tate, I got a small parcel of plants from Mr Oliver, collected
near Eucla in S.A. territory. One of the plants is new for your colony, namely
of Dunal. It is one of the few plants, which extend from Shark-Bay
to the great Bight, but penetrating not into the largely peculiar vegetation of W.A,
nor mixing with the general desert-flora of the wide inland regions of Australia.
If anything additional to your Flora comes to me, I will send it to you, before it
comes out of my memory.
