Dear Baron

Many thanks for the specimen of Bolbophyllum Lichenastrum I should be obliged by your opinion as to whether the enclosed can be considered identical I think not though of course closely related

I sent yesterday the 2nd part of the 2nd Vol. of the Australian orchids with which I hope you will be pleased1

Yours truly

Robt D Fitzgerald
