Dear Sir, 
My colleagur Mr E.J.H.Corner, is revising the 
species of Ficus of the subgenus Synoecia. One species, 
F.punctata t reaches IndoChina, according to M.Gagnepain 
in ’’Flore Gen.de L f Indo-Chine", and as this species is 
very variable in the Malayan region, Mr Corner would like 
to examine specimens from IndoChina. I would be most 
grateful if you could send on loan any herbarium material 
of this species which you may have. This loan will be 
duly acknowledged and a copy of Mr Corner's paper sent to 
you when published. 
Yours very truly, 
Direct f Gardens, S.S 
Director,
