volucri squamae lineari-subulatae delicate glanduloso-pubescentes, in- 
terioribus longioribus. — Achenia linearia, parce pubescentia, pappo 
paulo breviora. — New Zealand. — Mount Frederic, 3400 ft. (P. 
G. Morgan)! Arthurs Pass, 3000 ft, D. P.; mountains near West- 
port (Townson)! Mount Greenland, Westland (Dr. L. Cockayne)! — 
In his „Manual of the New Zealand Flora“ Mr. Cheeseman has in- 
cluded this plant in var. petiolata T. Kirk of Hooker's C. incana. It is 
doubtless connected with that species by forms more or less inter- 
mediate, but it possesses a number of distinctive characters that remain 
constant over wide areas on the western side of the South Island, and 
it therefore appears to me best to recognize it as a distinct species, a 
course that Dr. Cockayne has already suggested. Mr. Kirk's variety, 
the type of which was collected by myself, is closer to typical C. in- 
cana than is the widely spread form described above. The species forms 
à transition between Hooker's species C. incana and C. discolor. 
1012. Helichrysum (Leucogenes) Grahami D. Petrie, |. c., p. 268. — 
Caules numerosi a radice longo crasso ligneo emi si, simplices v. parce 
divisi, subgraciles (cum foliis 3—4 mm lati), molles, flexiles, 10—15 cm 
alti. — Folia dense pluriseriatim imbricata, lato basi sessilia, breviter 
lanceolata, + 5 mm longa, subacuta, tomento laxo albido dense vestita; 
superiora ampliata capitulum tamen haud excedentia. — Capitula 2—5- 
fasciculata, terminalia, sessilia, + 2 mm lata; involucri squamae 3-seria- 
tae, pallidae, scariosae, nitidae, lineari-oblongae, subacutae vix radiatae, 
exterioribus apice parce tomentosis. — Flores numerosi, feminei 1-seriati; 
corolla perangusta, basi subito tumida, apicem versus leviter expansa; 
Pappi setae paucae, barbellatae, apicem versus leviter incrassatae — 
Achenium parce pilosum. — New Zealand. — In clefts of rocks 
9n Sebastopol Ridge, Sealey Range, Hooker Valley, Mount Cook. Flowers 
in February and March. — In some respects it is intermediate between 
Helichrysum Vaill. and Leucogenes Beauverd. Fuller material is needed 
to settle its exact position. 
1013. Raoulia cinerea De Petrie, |. c., p. 269. — Caules ramosi, ser- 
pentes, a latere inferiore complures longos radices emittentes, crassius- 
culi; rami breves prostrati v. ascendentes. — Folia dense piuriseriatim 
imbricata, suberecta, apicibus + incurvata, integerrima, lineari-subulata, 
acuminata, 4—6 mm longa, + !/, mm lata, undique tomento cinereo 
laxo vestita. — Capitula ramos terminantia, inter folia ultima immersa 
circa 5 mm lata. — Involucri squamae 2-3 seriatae, folia suprema 
haud excedentes, scariosae, subflavidae, acutae, dorso parce tomentosae, 
interiores glabrae haud radiatae. — Flores in capitulo utroque circa 15- 
- Pappi setae graciles, nec barbellatae nec apice incrassatae. — 
Achenium lineari-oblongum, glabrum. — New Zealand, — Shingle 
Peak, Upper Awatere (Marlborough), 5000 ft. — This most distinct 
Species was collected by Dr. L. Cockayne, F.R.S., F.L.S. and Mr. 
S. G. Mowat, in January and February, 1912, to whom | am greatly 
indebted for specimens.
