From John MacKibbin   September 1892

No. 3

Pterostylis – This is the plant I got in King Island 1 also at Swan Island and Queenscliffe 2 and seems identical with the one sent to the Baron von Mueller K.C.M.G. by Mr Hart 3 – and it will be seen I got both large & small growth (they appear smaller where exposed to the strong rays of sun as Orchids love shade)

 

Pterostylis

 
Bass Strait.
Vic.
Almost certainly MEL 1540862, collected by Hart in September 1892.
