From Ferdinand von Mueller to Joseph Decaisne   13 June 1875

Melbourne

13/6/75

Probably with next post, dear Dr Decaisne, I intend to send you the 7th & 8th vol. of the fragmenta in bound state, as the binder has them in hand.1

Will you with your usual generosity and urbanity oblige me by sending me any particular numbers of the Annales des sciences naturelles, which since 1865 may contain descriptive notes on New Caledonian or Australian plants.

Indeed I am anxious to purchase the particular numbers, which may contain descriptions of Southern plants, if you kindly could forward them to Dulau & Coy of Soho Square2 or indicate them merely to them.

Very regardfully

Ferd. von Mueller
