new genera, Nematophyllum and Oxycladium. Many of my LeguminoscB 

 are not yet examined. Amongst LorantJiacecB are charming plants, and 



:im 



flowers. Onagrem are reduced to 1 sp. of Liidwigia and 2 sp. of Jussima. 

 Amongst Rubiacem I have done little else than to ascertain that the 

 Sarcocephalus mentioned by Dr. Leichhardt is a splendid large arbo- 

 reous Morinda, which I named after my unfortunate countryman ; that 2 

 Gardenias, 4 Iledyotu sp., 4 Spermacoce exist ; the unexamined rest 

 contains PsychotrkJia and some genera not noticed by Cunuinghani, 

 but I have, on the other hand, not seen all those which he enumerates. 

 WiamnacecB and Celadrinea are very scarce : the former includes Zizy- 

 phus melastomoides. All. Cunn. I was greatly disappointed to see in 

 the desert so little of my favourite Order, the Composite, although I 

 presumed that they would vanish greatly in the coast tract. Having 

 dissected all of them, I give the enumeration: — Calotis, allied to C. 

 hreviseta; TFedelia, 1 sp.; Wollastonia, 1 sp. ; Fernonia cinerea; SpluB- 

 ranihus megacephalus, n. sp. ; Eurybia Irachyco^noides, n. sp. ; Pluchea
