Note attached: Dear Dr. Sharp, I am finally returning this pitiful Mexican specimen of Bruchia queenslandica. This specimen is slightly different than Australian and South African D. queenislandica but as sufficiently as so to warrant species status. This should be filed with the specimen if possible so that no other capsules have to be sacrificed if someone else wants to examine the spore morphology. Thank you for giving me access to this specimen for my revision of Bruchia.
