Plantae novae in New South Wales indigenae. 281 
the next pair of leaves, the pair of bracts on the base of the peduncle 
entirely leaf-like. Calyx-lobes triangular, acute. Petals imbricate in bud, 
red, at the most thrice as long as the sepals, not much spreading in 
the specimens seen, so that the flower has a not fully opened appearance. 
Sepaline stamens slightly longer than the petaline ones; filaments quite 
glabrous, but the upper part of all covered with irregular acute excres- 
cences; anthers not apiculate. Disk thick and somewhat warty. Style 
short, with a small capitate stigma. Ripe fruits and seeds not seen. 
New South Wales: Gregarious in swamps between Clarence and 
Wolgan, Blue Mountains (H. Deane; October, 1906). 
A very good species, sharply distinguished from all described Boronias. 
In position it comes next to B. parviflora Sm., but the habit and the 
leaves are totally different. The colour of the flowers varies from white 
to deep pink.

We are of opinion that this plant should properly be looked upon 
as a distinct species, it being, we think, sufficiently and consistently 
distinct from B, ledifolia, its closet congener so far as our knowledge 
goes at present. It seems to be sufficiently described loc. cit.

New South Wales: Howell (J. L. Boorman; January, 1906). 
A small tuberous-rooted perennial (or annual) growing on moist 
shallow deposits of soil on rocks amongst mosses and other dwarf plants. 
In habit it is entirely like the yellow-flowered P. bicolor, with the same 
characteristic two-coloured leaves, but the colour of the flowers in the 
new variety is rose-pink, and the number of petals 5 or 6, mostly 6.
