Received confirmation of safe receipt of his lichen collection by Linnean Society. Still awaiting copies of "Flora Britannica" and "Linnean Transactions", and specimens of Australian plants. Encloses specimens for Smith [extant]. Pleased Smith has seen his "Lichenographia universalis". Hopes Smith does not finish fourth volume of "Flora Britannica" before seeing his "Synopsis Methodica Lichenum". Sending paper on 'Glyphis' and 'Chiodecton' for "Linnean Transactions"; notes on engravings.

Two specimens attached, labelled in Smith's hand: 1. "'Oscillaloria pubfufera' Vauch. & Agaroh. 'Conferv. velubina' Roth.". 2. 'Ulva terreftus' Wulf. Roth.".
