To Paolo Dattari1    7 September 1886

7/9/86

 

Please accept the byefollowing map of New Guinea, dear Mr Dattari, as it will be useful for your purposes. With Capt Bové I have corresponded some time ago concerning his proposed expedition from Argentina to Graham's Land and other antarctic regions.

If you have still a few copies of the admirable illustration and description of the magnificent Coleopter2 to spare for me, I shall be particularly grateful to you.

Regardfully your

Ferd. von Mueller.
