The reference is to Ueber den Bau und das Winden der Ranken und Schlingpflanzen (On the structure and coiling of tendril and twining plants) by Hugo von Mohl (Mohl 1827). An annotated copy of Mohl 1827 is in the Darwin Library--CUL (see Marginalia 1: 590--4). - +

Mohl's work Grundzüge der Anatomie und Physiologie der vegetabilischen Zelle (Mohl 1851) was translated by Arthur Henfrey as Principles of the anatomy and physiology of the vegetable cell (Henfrey trans. 1852). Oliver refers to Henfrey trans. 1852, p. 157. An annotated copy of Henfrey trans. 1852 is in the Darwin Library--CUL (see Marginalia 1: 589--90). - +
