These seventy species belong to forty genera and twenty-six natural orders, and are 

 remarkable for the large proportion of trees and shrnbs they include. Thus, deducting 

 the grasses and sedges, of which there are nine species, out of the remaining sixty-one 

 species, forty-six, or more than two-thirds, are shrubby or arboreous. Of trees affording 

 timber for building and joinery, Philippi mentions Drimys confertifolia, Zanthoxylum 

 mayu, Myrtus fernandezianus, Sophora tetraptera, and the species of Cuminia. 

 Rhaphithamnus, one species of Dendroseris, Eryngium buplcuroides, and Psychotria 

 pyrifolia also attain a considerable thickness of trunk, whereas the species of Gunnera, 

 of Robinsonia and the Palm rarely have trunks more than eight inches through. 



The additional possibly indigenous species ' are : — * Cardamine chenopodifolia, 

 * Stellaria cuspidata, * Sjiergidaria rubra, '"Sophora tetraptera, * Fragaria chilensis,* 

 Margyricarpus setosus,Acaina argentea, '" Holoragis alata, Tetragonia expansa, Sanicula

* Cyperus reflexus, Cyperus vegctus, Scirpvs nodosus, Paspalum distichum, * Stipa 

 bicolor, Piptochcetium bicolor, * Chatotropis chilensis, '"Trisctum variabile, and Bromus 

 unioloides. 



The very doubtfully indigenous species are : — Cardamine flaccida, Sagina chilensis, 



1 Those species preceded by an asterisk (*) Lave perhaps as strong claims to be considered indigenous as any 

 plant not actually endemic can have.
