title: Ferdinand von Mueller in philately.
abstract: Ferdinand von Mueller was one of the greatest Australia's nineteenth-century scientists, with an international botanical reputation. The substantial international recognition for his work in the form of numerous titles, awards and honorary memberships of scientific societies did not end at his death. In 1948, a stamp showing his portrait commemorated the discovering and tableting of Australian flora. On the 100th anniversary of Mueller's death in 1996, both the German Mail Office and the Australian Post Office honored him with a stamp.
