792 NOTES FROM THE BOTANIC GARDENS, SYDNEY, NO. XVI., 



composite:. 

 Helichrysum cassinoides Benth. New for New South Wales. 



Gunnedah(J. L. Boorman; November, 1910). 



Previously recorded from Queensland only, " Keppel Bay and 

 Broad Sound "(collected by Robert Brown); also from " Gains- 

 ford "(collected by E. Bowman, Nat. Herb., Melbourne). 



It is a shrub, generally 4 to 6 feet high, exceptionally attain- 

 ing a height of 10 feet or more; and was found in stony places, 

 near the Black Jack Coal Mine, at Gunnedah. 



STYLIDIEiE. 

 Levenhookia dubia Sond. 



Hawkesbury Agricultural College, Richmond; plentiful in a 

 paddock on the College Farm(C. T. Musson; October, 1903). 



New for the County of Cumberland; not recorded in Rev. Dr. 

 Woolls' " Plants indigenous in the Neighbourhood of Sydney." 



EPACRIDEiE. 



Epacris mucronulata R.Br. 

 In these Proceedings for 1898(Vol. xxiii., p. 13) we recorded the 

 above species as new for New South Wales. Prof. Ewart has 

 pointed out to us that he has determined the plant as E. pahidosa, 

 R. Br., and we consider that his view is the correct one. It is 

 an alpine form of E. pahcdosa, different in appeai-ance from the 

 form so common on the Blue Mountains, but still not specifically 

 different. We, therefore, withdraw the name of Epacris mucro- 

 nulata from tlie flora of New South Wales.
