458) from material lacking flowers and seeds. Mr. Bauerlen has 

 been successful in collecting complete material of the species at 

 Tumbulgum, where the tree attains a height of over 50 feet and 

 a diameter of 15 inches. The flowers may now be described as 

 follows : — Panicles axillary, either single or a cluster of from five 

 to six, about 3 inches long. Flowers not numerous, distant; 

 buds globular, a little over one line in diameter. Sepals imbricate 

 in the bud, almost orbicular, unecjual, glabrous; petals oval, 

 glabrous, about 1 line long. Sepals and petals reddish with 

 hyaline edges. Stamens eight, pubescent towards the base.

Bossi.EA FOLioSA, A. Cuun. — As an instance of the adaptation 

 of plants to environmental conditions, it may be here recorded 

 that plants of this species collected on the Crackenback jNIountain 

 (Mt. Kosciusko) at an elevation of 5,000 feet, by W. Bauerlen, 

 have the calyx pubescent (as mentioned by Bentham, B.FI. ii. 

 p. 160), whilst specimens of undoubtedly the same species 

 collected at Heydon's Bog, Delegate, 3000 feet, by this gentle- 

 man, have the calyx quite glabrous. 



Acacia Bakeri, J.H.M. — Tumbulgum, Tweed River, extend- 

 ing also into Queensland (W. Bauerlen). 



Acacia rubida, A. Cnnn. — This species is known at Gerogery
