Möst H onored Friend I 



Heartiest thank for your letter 1 ! I searched through the 

 package, which arrived several days earlier, several times,lookingr 

 for some lines from you, but apparentlyv no such were enclosed.. 



Your items have heerv -thoroughly examined, and can at any 

 moment be returned^but r desire to re-examine some of the Calli - 

 tri che items once raore in the falliand thus, II take perraission, to 

 keep all! for now here. B learned through this occasiorr of new forms 

 of that genus f and it seems to me, that the creation of one or the 

 other new narae can not be avoided, though II object as much as pos- 

 sible against this.. I also had to convince myself,, that V had done 

 totally wro ng tooyourj2[, (here is a blank in the text,E.D») micro- 

 carpa in the postscript to ray last essay?: it is different from alH 

 other known ones% and I can State the circurastance only for half arr 

 excuse, that I did not have before a properly ripe fruit«- for exami- 

 nation,. 



Should you not yourself desire to describe the Californias and 

 eubarr items, and as this wöuld be desirable, I cannot do this now sud- 

 denlK but could do it durlng Fall! towar<4 New Year in quite Short 

 articles-; Materiallfor also quite Short articleS will! perhaps come 

 from the forms from New Holland and Chile, whichFII examined lately- 

 Should the note about the calif orrfein (or euban) } be sui table foi* your 

 St. Lbuis dissertations, I would raake them available in the future,. 

 because they are entirely written in La ti rr or G'ermarr,and I wouldr 

 not want to compjomise myself by translating them into English.. 



In the issue,provided some time back, of your transactions- I 1 

 f ind'" ! explanations about the majority of your beautiful! juncl ;
