[edit]

Didn't Hofmeister publish similar observations some years earlier?

Hofmeister, W. (1863). Zusatze und Berichtigungen zu den 1851 veröffentlichen Untersuchungengen der Entwicklung höherer Kryptogamen. Jahrbucher für Wissenschaft und Botanik 3, 259-293.

In the literature one can find mentions of both Hofmeister's rule and Hertwig's rule and they seem to have equal meaning. Hofmeister recognized this phenomenon in plants and Hertwig in animals.
