 My dear Deane: 



I ara wondering if I can get you to help me 

 on one of the Alyssums, Aly s sum Mo e±l ondor f i anum of 

 Ascherschon has come into cultivation but I am unable to 

 find description of it, inasmuch as W# do not have 

 the publications in which it vrrs originally described. 

 It is relatively a new species. It comes from Bosnia, 

 you will find a reference to it on page 2$ of the fir~t 

 supplement of Index Kewensis. I am enclosing you our 

 page c ontaining Alyssiira and you will see that at the bottom 

 of the first column, I have left three lines or so for 

 description of Moellendorf ianum. I am wondering whether 

 T could ank you to Iook up the description and give me 

 e n ou ,h to fill tha t s p a c e .
