194 DESCRIPTIVE RECORD OP TWO PLANTS OCCURRING IN N S. WALES, 



J. haJceoides reaches the Arrowsmitli River and Port Gregory 

 (F. V. M.). 



J. lyteroclada was found by me on the Upper Irwin and Greenough 

 River in a narrower state. 



J. racemosa occurs near Israelite Bay (Miss Brooke), and near 

 Fraser's Range (Dempster). 



This is an apt moment for simultaneously giving publicity to 

 another congener, discovered some years ago in Arnhem's Land, 

 but left undescribed till now. 



Jacksonia Forrestii, n. sp. 



Grey-silky ; branchlets thin, angular, nearly erect ; flowers 

 scattered along the upper part of the branchlets on very short 

 stalklets ; calyx persistent, deeply divided into almost equal lobes ; 

 style long-persistent, silky in its lower portion ; fruit almost 

 sessile within the calyx, oblique ovate-ellipsoid, rather turgid, 

 conspicuously pointed, hardly longer than the calyx, generally one- 

 seeded. 



In the vicinity of the Humbert River (Alexander Forrest). 



This new tropical species difiers from J. cwpuUfera in stalklets 

 much shorter than the calyx, in persistent calyx-lobes and style, 

 in much smaller fruits not stipitate; from J. rhadinoclada already 

 in silky vestiture, in more angular and not spreading branchlets, 

 in not deciduous calyces, in somewhat longer and more pointed 

 fruit ; from J. thesioides in dense and close indument, in more 

 slender branchlets, in more deeply divided calyces with ampler 

 tube, and probably also in the color of the petals, those of our new 

 species being as yet unknown ; from J. vernicosa already in 

 neither glabrous nor streaked nor viscid branchlets, in remoter 

 bracts, in smaller and silky calyces with shorter tube, in less 

 elongated style, and smaller bracteoles. 



This seems also a favourable opportunity for recording the 

 N.S.W. species which have been added to the lists of those 

 published in the " Census " of Australian plants, and in its three 

 supplements : —
