Ab hae specie distinguitur P. elachophylla (F. M. Fragm. Phyt. 
Austr. ii. 131) foliis adhuc minoribus, florum dispositione, peta- 
lorum defectu, stylo brevissimo eano-velutino et forsan fructu. 
Pomaderris phylicifolia.

Ad ripas amnium rivulorumque subalpinorum Australie, inde 
in planities terre Gipps Land et ad flumina Hume et Murray 
eterne ; occurrit etiam ad torrentes Tasmanis et Nov: Zee- 
andi. 
Frutex pluripedalis usque ultra-orgyalis. Folia pleraque 1-1" 
longa, 1-3" lata, supra parum rugosa. Stipule bilineares v. bre- 
viores. Corymbi v. umbellz breviter v. brevissime peduneulatz. 
Pedicelli plerique eireiter 1" longi. Calycis lobi 3" longi, mox 
decidui, filamentis paulo longiores. Stylus cireiter 1" longus. 
Capsule lineam paulo excedentes. Endocarpii facies interna post 
delapsum membran: opercularis fere margine tenus aperta. Semen 
j" longum, levissimum, nitens, strophiolo perbrevi tenui-bilobo 
suffultum. 
Varietatem hujus speciei habeo Trymalium helianthemifolium, 
Reiss. in Linnza, xxix. 271, pedicellis longioribus, capsula apice 
obtusata fere omnino supera ad basim tantum calycis tubo brevis- 
simo depressoque cincta et coccis pertarde deoperculatis insignem.
