From John Baker to Ferdinand von Mueller   24 Feb 1885

Dear Dr Mueller

This is one of the forms of Selaginella canaliculata, Baker (= Lycopod.1 canaliculatum L = S. caudata Spring = S. Durvillei, A. Br). It seems widely spread in Trop. Asia & Polynesia & I expect will turn up some day in North Australia

Yours very truly

J. G. Baker.

Kew, Feb. 24 1885.
