MS found with specimen of Anthotroche healiana collected by Heal and named by M for her (B91.02.01, p. 153). Also attached to the specimen sheet are two of M’s specimen labels: ‘Anthotroche Healiana, FvM | Sources of Swan River at Cummening, W.A. | 1890 | Mrs Martha Heal’ and ‘ Anthotroche Healiana F.v.M. | Cummening, East York, WA | Jan. 1891 | Mrs M Heal’. An approximate date is assigned to the note on the basis of the latter record.
This is all I have of this new plant but shall procure you better specimens first opportunity
M Heal
