The Joseph Dalton Hooker Collection
The Joseph Dalton Hooker Correspondence Project at Kew is making available online the personal and scientific correspondence of the botanist and explorer Sir Joseph Dalton Hooker (1817–1911), Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens’ Kew from 1865-1885. The project was conceived by staff of The University of Sussex and Kew's Library, Art and Archive department and began as a partnership between Kew and the University of Sussex's Centre for World Environmental History. It has been made possible by support from the Stevenson Family Charitable Trust. Letter summaries can be searched through Ɛpsilon, with links to images and transcriptions at the project site at Kew (https://www.kew.org/explore-our-collections/correspondence-collections/joseph-hooker-collections).

JDH informs Otto Stapf that he is sending a parcel to the Director by rail which contains four items: periodicals; FLORA OF INDO CHINA; SPECIES OF HYDROCERA and ICONES material for Miss [Matilda] Smith. Stapf has annotated the note after JDH's signature, noting that Miss Smith is still ill and that the ICONES material should go to her. He writes 'No more Hydrocera'. He also asks whether anything is known about a journal or diary of Seemann's travels in Oahu beyond what has been published in the LONDON JOURNAL OF BOTANY, and BONPLANDIA.
