MR. SPENCEH MOORE : A CONTRIBUTION 



George's Sound. Forgetful ness of the lait-uientioneJ fact has led Benthani 

 to localize Triclilalam Fraserl, A. Cuiin., as a N. S. Wales plant, whereas 

 it is really a South-Western species. This uanie, loo, is omitted from 

 Mr. Maiden's useful *' Records" above noted. 



Gilbert, John. Besides plants, collected bird-sldns for Gould the ornl- 

 tholool<t ; the Museum has a considerable number of his South-Western 

 plants. Bentliam cites this name but rarely and never with the number,

His plants, amounting to 



nearly 1400, especially those from Paluierston, Adelaide River, and Pine 

 Creekj chosen with judf;nient and well preserved, are often of great interest 

 and value. 



LEicilAnrx, i\ W. L. In the not very large collection of this traveller's 

 plants, those of most interest are from North Australia, 



Leschenal^lt de la Toue. Botanist to the Paudin Expedition at the 



bt'ginning of the last century. A set of his plants comnmnicated from the 

 Paris Museum in 181G includes a few co-ty])es of ^roat value. The most 

 interesting of this collector's phnits are from the Shark's Bay District, a 

 locality his fellow-countryman Graudichaud also visited a few years after- 

 wards. Both these names are omitted by Mr. Maiden. 



MACGlLLlvitAY, J, Botanist to various Australian expeditions. The 

 Museum has a set of his plants dated 1842 when on the ' Fly,' Sandy Cape 

 and Port Bowen being the localities. 



Maxwell, G. Collected in Sonth-Wcst Australia, mainly in the Mount 

 Barren coastal region. Though the bulk of his plants went to Melbourne, 

 whence Mueller communicated many to Kew, a large number found their

The Museum has nearly 500 of this well-known 

 traveller s specimens, which are often the more valuable from having 

 attached to them dated labels enabling the localities to be ascertained upon 

 reference to the explorer's second work, that of 1848.
