Having noticed explorers' collections which were determined 

 by Baron Mueller, it may be well to mention some of the private 

 or paid collectors that have sent their collections to him. 



First amongst these must be mentioned the Rev. Wm. 

 Woolls, Ph.D., who not only collected most of the plants of the 

 Parramatta district, but made collections from other localities, 

 and induced many in far distant parts to collect and forward to 

 Baron Mueller. Besides this, Dr. Woolls wrote largely on the 

 flora of New South Wales himself. The noble timber tree, 

 Echinocarpus Wuollsii, F.v.M., is named after him. 



The Rev. -J. E. Tenison-Woods, when residing in the 

 Tattiara country, collected most of the plants of that district 

 and forwarded them to Baron Mueller, who named the pretty 

 heath-like shrub Lew:opo(fon Woothii after him. 



Baron Mueller also received the specimens collected by Dr 

 H. Beckler, at Moreton Bay ; in the vicinity of Melbourne ; on the 

 Hastings, Richmond, Macleay, and Clarence Rivers ; and about 

 the Darling and Barrier Ranges, when the doctor was botanist 

 to the Burke and Wills Expedition. I.rora llccJderii, Benth., is 

 named after this collector. 



The large gatherings made by that excellent collector, .J. 

 Dallachy in the southern parts of Australia, and of late years, 

 about Rockingham Bay, were also described by Baron Mueller, 

 many of them in the volumes of the " Fragmenta Phytographiae 

 Australia." His name will also be found frequently mentioned 

 in the pages of Bentham's Flora. Baron Mueller has given his 

 name to a genus of RhamnejB iJallac/iya, and one of our most 

 useful native fruits — the Herbert River cherry — Antidesuui 

 ]>(illar/n/((nuiii, Boiss, is also named after him. 



Chas. Moore and W. R. Guilfoyle, the present directors of 

 the Sydney and Melbourne Botanic Gardens, in former years 

 collected plant specimens both in New South Wales and Queens- 

 land, the greater part of which were sent to Baron Mueller for 

 determination. The large Cycad of Springsure, Macruzamia 

 Muorei, F.v.M. , bears the name of the first mentioned, and a 

 genus of Simarube^e Guil/oi/li<i, that of the latter.
