STYLIDE^. 



Stylidium eglandulosum, F.v.M. — Dubbo (J. L. Boorman, 

 December, 1897). 



The most southern locality previously recorded is the Warrum- 

 bungle Ranges, Namoi River, IST.S.W. 



EPACRIDE^. 



LissANTHE MONTANA, R.Br. — Previously only recorded from 

 Tasmania and the Munyong Mountains in Victoria. 



Mt. Kosciusko, Sawpit Creek, 9 miles from Jindabyne, in 

 fruit, and between 5,500 feet and summit, in flower (J. H. 

 Maiden, January, 1898). 



Mueller unites Lissanthe montana with Leucopogon llookeri 

 under the name of Styphelia montmia, but in all the material 

 examined we find the corolla lobes of Leucopogon Hookeri con- 

 stantly densely hairy (as pointed out by Bentham) and those of 

 Lissanthe montana quite glabrous, besides minor differences in 

 the size of the flowers; the ripe fruits of Leucopoyon Hookeri are 

 red, and those of Lissanthe montana are described as white, but 

 we have not seen ripe fruits of the latter. Both species have 

 been collected together on Mt. Kosciusko. 



The differences between the two species have been emphasised 

 by Bentham ( B. Fl. iii. 176), and we concur in his remarks, but 

 Mueller continued to amalgamate the species {Census, 2nd ed. 

 1889). 



Epacris mucronulata, ^.5r.— Previously only recorded from 

 Tasmania. 



Mt. Kosciusko, 5,500 feet to summit (J. H. Maiden, Januar}', 

 1898). 



Differs from the Tasmanian specimens in the herbarium of the 

 Botanic Gardens, Sydney, and from Hooker's figure in Flora 

 Tasmania, i. t. 79b. (as E. Franklinii) in the rather shorter and 

 broader and more pointed leaves, but it has the comparatively 

 long corolla-tube and short lobes by which this species is easily 

 distinguished from all congeners.
