402 L, Diels u. E. Pritzel. 
die Gattung sehr zurück; scheint dort sogar auf größere Strecken hin zu 
fehlen. 
Ebenso scheu hält sie sich von den stark lehmigen Eucalyptus- 
Beständen des Binnenlandes fern. Besonders in den beiden Bezirken 
der Eremaca haben wir Verticordia-Arten ausschließlich an freieren, stark 
sandigen Stellen bemerkt. 
Verticordia stenopetala Diels n. sp. 
Fruticulus ramosissimus; foliis confertis petiolulatis crassiusculis lineari- 
bus subieretibus, pedunculis folio longioribus strictis; floribus purpuras- 
centibus, calycis tubo hemisphaerico undique hirsuto segmentis primariis 
in lobos ca. 5 ciliatos divisis; petalis oblongo-lanceolatis apice denticulatis 
calycis segmenta subaequantibus, tubo stamineo conspicuo, staminibus stami- 
nodia glandulosa linearia subaequantibus; stylo elongato sub apice barbato. 
Fruticulus 30—40 cm alt.; folia 3-—6 mm long. pedunculi 6 em long. calycis 
tubus 2X 4 mm, segmenta 3— & mm long., petala 4 X 2 mm, tubus stamineus ca 
9,75 mm, staminodia 4 mm, stamina 4 mm, stylus 7—8 mm long. 
Hab. in distr. Coolgardie pr. Bronti in fruticetis apertis arenosis 
aridis fl. m. Nov. (D. 6405). 
Species sectionis Euveriicordíae, alfinis. V. Foníanes?i DC., differt calycis lobis 
vix searíosis angustissimis, petalis oblongo-lanceolatis, stylo elongato. 
Verticordia Brownii DC. (B. II. 24). 
Per regionum interiorum arenosa distributa videtur. 
Vertieordia chrysantha Endl. (B. HI. 24). 
IIabemus speciem pulcherrimam a distr. Coolgardie (pr. Dundas) per 
arenosa vel lutoso-arenosa interiora pervulgatam ad montes Stirling Range, 
fl. Avon et prope sinum Champion Bay mare attingentem. In regionibus 
circum Stirling Range observavimus formas ad Verticordiam Preissü 
transeuntes (e. g. E. Prırzeı Pl, Austr. occ. 679, D. 4443). 
Verticordia densiflora Lindl. (B. HI. 29). 
Legimus specimen floribus roseo-albidis typicum, sed foliis latioribus 
ublusissimis ad V. stelluligerai Meisen. vergens in distr. Irwin pr. Hutt 
River in fruticetis arenosis aridis (D. 5717). — Speciei typus per districtus 
occidentales pervulgatus. 
Verticordia stelluligera Meissn. (B. III. 20). 
Praecedenti proxima vix nisi floribus luteis distincta. Vidimus in distr. 
Irwin in arenosis fruticulosis pr. Bowen River flor, m. Nov. exeunte (D. 
5640). 
Verticordia Fontanesii DC. (B. HI. 21). . 
Formam grandifloram (prob. V. pectinata Turcz.?) observavimus n 
distr. Eyre ab Esperance Bay ca. 45 km septentrionem versus in arenosis 
frutieulosis flor. m. Nov. (D. 5341, 5435].
