22/11/82.

Best thanks, dear Mr Ramsay, for the "marine" plants. You will hardly credit, when I say that no one ever had a fruiting specimen of the common "Seagrass", ( ) (sent now with the Algs) from any part of N.S.W. in fruit. Probably you have two species there, but none has been accurately determined yet.

I look forward with interest also to the "Seagrass" on which the Halicore

principly feeds.

Regardfully your

Ferd. von Mueller.
