220 MR. 8. MOORE ON THE FLORA 
TRICHINIUM CARLSONI, F. Muell. Near Coolgardie, August. 
The flowers are sometimes yellow, sometimes orange-red. 
T. HOLOSERICEUM, Mog. The Forty-five-mile, June. Cool- 
gardie district, August. Some of the specimens vary from the 
typical habit, the stems shooting out to a length of 10-15 em., 
and bearing numerous leaves as long as or longer than the radical 
ones. 
POLYGONES. 
Rumex crıspus, Linn. Bullabulling, September. Probably 
introduced by teamsters. 
POLYGONUM PROSTRATUM, R. Br. Near Kilkenny soak, 
June. A form with short ovate-lanceolate leaves, 12-2 cm. in 
length.

This is a singular-looking plant, and not likely to be mistaken 
for any ofits congeners. In habit it reminds one slightly of 
P. angulata, R. Br., but the tomentose leaves are very much 
smaller and twisted. This twist, which is well marked in the 
case of most leaves, probably has heliotropism for its cause.
