CRYPTOSTEMMA CALENDULACEA, R. Br. Near Coolgardie, 
August. Seen also in various places in the interior, where it is 
by uo means infrequent. 
SONCHUS OLERACEUS, Linn. Near Coolgardie, August. 
GooDENIACEE. 
VELLEIA ROSEA, sp. nov. Humilis, pubescens, folus radi- 
calibus petiolatis anguste obovatis obtusissimis basi sensim 
attenuatis margine dentatis vel crcnatis vel solummodo undulatis, 
scapo erecto folia vix duplo superante pubescente, bracteis ad 
furcas oppositis ovatis lobatis vel fere iutegris, sepalis 5 liberis 
tepalo axiali ovato-lanceolato ceteris lanceolatis omuibus sub- 
equilongis acutis, corolla rosea extra pubescente ecalearata hujus 
lobis omnibus utrinque alatis inferioribus 3 altius connatis, 
indusio mediocri. 
Hab. Inter Wilson's pool et lae. Darlót inveni mens. Apr. 
florentem. 
Radix sat crassus, simplex. Novelle lanate. Foliorum lamina 
1:3-2:0 cm. long., circa 07 cm. lat., pubescens, basi in petiolum 
usque 0:7 em. long. decurrens. Scapus paullo ultra 40 cm. 
alt, ad 3:0 cm. bracteatus. Bractew 06-08 em. long., altera 
biloba, altera 1-dentata, ambo pubescentes. Floris unici maturi 
nobis obvii vix 15 em. diam., vedicellus paullo ultra 1:0 em. long. 
Sepala pubescentia, 0°65 cm. long., minora vix 02 em. majus 
0-35 em. lat. Corolla tubus dorso vix 025 em. long., lobi in- 
feriores 07 em. long., superiores 1'0 em. long., usque ad 045 cm. 
a tubo liberi, omnes late alati.  Antherz 01 cm, long. Ovula 
quoveinloculo4. Indusium ambitu rotundatum, 0:23 cm. long., 
pilosum. Capsule nor.dum obvie. 
Undoubtedly near V. paradoxa, R. Br., from which it differs 
chiefly in habit, small leaves, smaller rose-coloured flowers—very 
rare for the genus,—anthers not balf the size, aud quite different 
indusium. 
The specimen, which is unique and has but one flower, was 
growing on the bank of a creek a sLort time after a heavy storm 
had visited the district. I could not find a fellow to it. 
V.?sp. A curious monster with somewhat the appearance 
of V. connata, F. Muell., but without its connate bracts. The 
runcinate radical leaves are situated on long petioles; the calyx- 
lubes are broadly ovate-lanceolate and promineutly toothed along 
the borders. Corolla broad, not n.uch exceeding the calyx.
