From Ferdinand von Mueller to Otto Tepper   5 Mar 1889

5/3/89.

Lieber Herr Tepper.

Besten Dank für Ihre ausführlichen Notizen über S.A. Gräser. So erhalten wir neue Mittheilungen von Ihnen über die Verbreitung u Charactere mancher Arten. Ich bin auch erfreuet über die Auskunft, welche Sie über Hakea u Corchorus geben, weiss aber noch nicht die Jahre des Erscheines der betreffenden Theile der Transact. Könnte der Sec d. R.S. v. S.A. etwa schon die Seitenzahl angeben von Newcastlia & Cheilanthes?

Mit freundschaftlichem Grusse

Ferd. von Mueller.

Dear Mr Tepper.

Best thanks for your detailed notes about South Australian grasses.1 Thus we receive new communications from you about the distribution and characters of several species. I am also pleased about the information that you give about Hakea and Corchorus, but still do not know the year of publication of the relevant parts of the Transactions. Could the secretary of the Royal Society of South Australia2 perhaps indicate the page number of Newcastlia & Cheilanthes?3

With friendly greetings

Ferd. von Mueller.

Cheilanthes

Corchorus

Hakea

Newcastlia

Letter not found.

W. L. Cleland; but Tepper's annotation indicates that he contacted the Editor, W. Howchin.

See notes to M to O. Tepper, 26 February 1889.

MS annotation by Tepper, the meaning of which is unclear: 'P.C. 12.3.89 Asked Howchin about big P.C.'.
