Dear Dr.van Steenis, 
Thank you for your letter of the 16th, 
referring to Corner''s collections from G. Tahan. 
Dr.Kukenthal has not had any of our Cyperaceae 
on loan and your suggestion that we should ask 
him to examine them is a welcome one. I am 
writing to him at once on the subject. 
I do not think that Corner had any special 
intentions with regard to the Tahan collections. 
Please keep them as long as you need, and then 
let us have them hack. 
I hope you will he able to come over to 
A 
visit T. Tahan next year. 
Yours sincerely. 
Dr.C.G. G.J.van Steenis
