1/12/82.

Bei der Durchsicht einiger Salsolaceen, lieber Herr Tepper, habe ich auch Ihre 624 u 755 numerirte Pflanze genau untersucht. Es ist Rhagodia Preissii Moq., welche für S.A. neu ist. Sie scheint ganz getrennten Geschlectes zu sein.

Erinnern Sie, ob die Früchte ja saftig werden?

Bestens grüssend

Ferd. von Mueller.

1/12/82.

In the examination of some , dear Mr Tepper, I have also carefully investigated your plants numbered 624 and 755. It is Moq., which is new for South Australia. It seems to have quite separate sexes.

Do you remember whether the fruits become fleshy?

Best greetings

Ferd. von Mueller.
