Stets der Ihre

Hätte gern etwas mehr von 391
Beste Wünsche fürs Neu-Jahr.
Gewiss, versuchen Sie es, einige Tage an der Encounter Bay zu sammeln. Die Gegend ist noch nie genau untersucht worden und müsste Neues liefern. Es ist ja jetzt so leicht u so billig dahin zu kommen.

The seeds no. 107 belong to a Daviesia, not to Pultenaea largiflorens.
441 variety of Correa speciosa Andr.
Always your

I would like some more of 391
Best wishes for the New Year
Certainly try to collect at Encounter Bay1 for a few days. The region has still never been properly investigated and must produce new things. It is certainly now so easy and so cheap to reach it.

M had been using the name Callitris cupressiformis, and attributing it to Ventenat, since at least 1864 (M to F. Paraltore. 24 November 1864 (in this edition as 64-11-24b)), and in print since at least 1865, in B65.10.01, p. 17, where it is listed as a numbered species on the plan of the Botanic Gardens. However, Ventenat did not give a specific name when he erected Callitris (Ventenat (1808), no. 10), nor is there any record of M's having had access to a copy of this work. He did, however, have a copy of Endlicher (1847) in which, on p. 36, the name, cited from Ventenat, is included as a synonym of Frenela triqetra.
