Dear Baron Mueller
I seem to have mistaken the habitat of the Pithecolobium — It was not gathered on the South Sea Islands but on one of our northern rivers either the Johnson or other but as it was given to me with South Sea Islands specimens I thus made the mistake and failed to identify — perhaps you will kindly compare with Q-land species and help me to its name
Your very truly
F. M. Bailey
Pithecolobium
