THE BOTANY OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA. 179 
its leaves on the barren branches are round, strongly nerved, with large 
teeth between the nerves; the leaves in the flowering branches are 
deeply trifid, with narrow pungent divisions; its flowers are of the 
same character as the other species of this section of the genus. 
Another fine species of the Manglesia section grows on the banks of 
brook-courses near Moresby's range; the leaves are very trifid, bearing 
some resemblance to G. ornithopoda, but the lobes are broader, and 
covered with a velvety down; the flowers I have not seen. A Gre- 
villea with pinnate leaves, nearly answering the description of Mr. 
Brown's Anadenia pulchella, is frequently met with on the sand-plains 
in the Champion Bay district ; and a new species, a bushy shrub with 
small linear leaves and red flowers, belonging to the Lyssanthe section 
of the genus, grows everywhere on the grassy hills of the Bowes 
country. I observed also a very curious Grevillea with multifid leaves, 
the divisions very long and narrow, and always branching off at right 
angles; this plant grows from two to three feet high, throwing up 
many unbranched stems from the same root; the branches are stout 
and upright, and the long divaricate leaves are so curiously interlaced, 
it is scarcely possible to separate any portions for specimens; I have 
not seen the flower. This plant has the seed-vessels and seed of Gre- 
villea, but that is the only resemblance it has to any described species 
of this genus. 
The sand-plains near the Hutt river produce a magnificent Grevillea, 
with fine pinnate leaves, fifteen inches long by nine wide; it grows in 
large bushes about four or five feet high; the flower-stalks, which have 
only simple leaves, rise above the plants to the height of six or eight 
feet, and terminate in large clusters of flowers a foot or more in dia- 
meter; the flowers are white, and have a strong honey-like scent. 
The Hakea conchifolia, a rare species at the Swan, grows abundantly 
on the ironstone hills to the north of Dundaragan, and with it a plant 
resembling H. attenuata, but the flowers are white, and they are only 
produced at the termination of the strongest branches: the seed-vessels 
are echinate, as in H. Lehmanniana, and defended by formidable tricus- 
pidate bracts. The same plains, near the Hill river, produce a fine 
Hakea, with leaves in size and form exactly resembling Salisburia adi- 
antifolia ; it is a much smaller plant than H. Brownii, with smaller 
and differently-sbaped seed-vessels. A new red Hakea, with linear 
leaves about three inches long, grows on the White Peak and’ other
