To Joseph Hooker   1 March 1869

1/3/69

 

Would you oblige me, dear Dr Hooker, by giving me the locality of the two Sandoricums, inserted into your Indo-Australian list in the introduction to the Flora of Tasmania.1 They are omitted in the Flora Australiensis, it seems by accident.2 It appears I have one now.3

Your regardful

Ferd von Mueller
