ANNIVERSARY ADDRESS. 4] 
colony from which he obtained his official position. It forms the 
basis, (at all events as far as the illustrations are concerned), of 
certain of his minor works on Victorian plants. Then we have 
the “Select Extra-tropical Plants,” a compendium of information 
in regard to plants (chiefly economic) worth cultivating, and one 
which has been translated into several languages. 
The Baron did not by any means strictly confine himself to the 
vegetation of Australia and Tasmania. Plants from New Zealand 
and adjacent islands, from the New Hebrides, Samoa, and other 
Polynesian islands, and particularly New Guinea, all engaged his 
attention, and form the subjects of valuable papers. 
I believe that no complete list of Mueller’s works exists, and I 
have on another occasion made the suggestion that such a list 
(with bibliographic annotations), would form a very appropriate 
memorial of him. The list should be in strict chronological order, 
with a botanically classified supplement. Such a list would find 
a place on the work-table of every student of Australian plants, 
and would go far to keep his memory green. The value of such 
a publication would be greatly enhanced if there were added to it 
reprints of some of his papers in obscure or rare serials ; at present 
they are lost to most of us. 
Tt has been suggested that a memorial of the Baron should be 
the publication of an eighth or supplementary volume of the Flora 
Australiensis. The work could contain a steel engraving of the 
Baron’s portrait, and some account of his life. Other suggestions 
for perpetuation of the memory of the Baron have been made, and 
are doubtless under consideration of the Victorian scientific 
Societies. Those of us in New South Wales who are interested 
in a memorial of the great man await the decision of Melbourne, 
—the city in which he practically spent the whole of his 
Australian life, 
Of honours he received many. His Fellowship of the Royal 
Society of London dates from 1861 ; a year or two ago he was” 
elected a Corresponding Member of the Institute of France. The 
King of Wurtemburg created him a Baron in 1871 in recognition
