RECORDS OF AUSTRALIAN BOTANISTS.
71

Bot. 1866, 236, also "Memoir of W. H. Harvey, M.D., F.R.S.," (London, 1869), with a portrait. Chapters xiii and xiv are devoted to his botanical travels in Australia, where plants other than sea-weeds also engaged his attention. He is commemorated by the following Australian plants:—

Sarcopetalum Harveyanum, F.v.M.; Acacia Harveyi, Benth.; Seseli Harveyanus, F.v.M.; Verticordia Harveyi, Benth.; Caulerpa Harveyi, F.v.M., a sea-weed figured in "Phycologia australica."


Heward, Robert (1791–1877). Died at Wokingham, Berkshire, England, 24th October, 1877. F.L.S. 1836. In Jamaica, 1823-6, "Ferns of Jamaica," Mag. Nat. Hist., 1838. Herbarium at Kew. Pritzel 143. Jackson 370. Joum. Bot., 1877, 380. Royal Society's Catalogue, iii, 342. Lasegue, 266, etc. Gardener's Chronicle 1877, ii, 571. The above from (1). He is chiefly known to Australian botanists as the friend, legatee and biographer of Allan Cunningham (see Lond. Journ. Bot., i, 107 and 263; also first series iv, 231–320, the whole published in one vol. by Heward). Doubtless owing to his relations with Cunningham he ever retained an interest in Australian plants.

He is commemorated in Hewardia,J. Sm. = Adiantum Hewardia Hook.; Dryandra Hewardiana, Meissn.; Grevillea Hewardiana, Meissn. = G. concinna, Br. var. racemosa; Pimelea Hewardiana, Meissn. = P. elachantha, F.v.M.


Kalckbrenner, Carl (1806–1886). He was an eminent authority on fungi, and described many Australian species, some of which are published in Mueller's Fragmenta. Others were published in Proc. Linn. Soc, N.S.W. (of which Society he was a corresponding member), viz., "Definitions of some new Australian fungi," vii., 104; "Fungi aliquot Australiæ orientalis," vii., 563; "New species of Agaricus discovered in West Australia," vii., 638; "Description of two new fungi," viii., 175. He died in 1886 near Zips, Hungary, pastor of the Church at Wallendorf. A brief note
