AVH data (accessed 19 February 2022) show that the specimens listed were collected by Gill in September and on 1 October 1890, with '138' being shown as no date, although the sheet (MEL 526351) has notes indicating it was collected '13 October' by Gill and came from the herbarium of H. B. Williamson (left to MEL on his death (Daley (1931), p. 174)). The earliest likely date that the list could have been prepared is October, late October if the date on Williamson's sheet represents the date of the specimen that M saw.
