 dora. p. 62—76. 1914.) 



Neu für die Neu-England-Staaten sind Clevea hyalina (Somm.) 

 Ldbg. und Neesiella rupestris (Nees) Schffn.; neu für N.-Amerika 

 sind Lophosia grandiretis (Ldbg.) Schffn. und Diplophyllum gym- 

 nostornophiluni Kaal. Letztere Art sowie D. ovatum lassen sich nach 

 Verf. ganz gut bei Diplophyllum. unterbringen. Neesiella rupestris 

 und N. pilosa sind schwer voneinander zu unterscheiden, worauf 

 schon Schiffner 1908 (in Hedwigia XL VII) aufmerksam machte. 

 Verf. meint, Lophosia grandiretis sei nicht gar so verwandt mit 

 L. marchica, wie dies Warnstorf meint. L. quinquedentata (Hds.) 

 Cogn. wird vom Verf. nicht mehr L. Ligoni (Hds.) Steph. genannt. 

 Da Plagiochila Sullivanti aus zwei verschiedenen Arten besteht 

 (PL Sullivanti Evans ex p. und PI. Sullivanti Stephani), so wird 

 statt dieser Art und statt P. spinulosa Aust. das noraen novum 

 Plagiochila Austini Evans eingeführt. Die Bezeichung Cephalosia 

 media Lindb. gegenüber C. connivens bleibt aufrecht.

Baker, T. and H. G. Smith. On an undescribed species of 

 Danoinia and its essential oil. (Journ. Roy. Soc. New South 

 Wales. L. 2. p. 181 — 186. 1916.) 



The species {Darwinia grandißora , sp. nov.) under discussion 

 Stands between D. taxifolia A. Cunn,, and D. fascicidaris Rudge in 

 its botanic origin. It has the characteristics of each and yet differs 

 from both. This is also true of its chemical characters. 



This paper describes these similarities and differences in detail 

 and gives the results of a detailed chemical analysis of the oil.

This list, which includes about 200 species, is largely the result 

 of three excursions: 1) Up to Murray to Renmark by water, 

 returning to Paringa Tailem Band railway, 2) To Gladstone 

 and Melrose, and 3) To Murat Bay, via the railwa}' from Port 

 Lincoln. Foür new species are described and figured, viz.: Trio- 

 dia lanata, M i n n i p a ; Trichinium seminudum, M i n n i p a ; Poran- 

 thera triandra, Jeelanna, and Brachycome tesquorum, Oodnadatta, 

 and Musgrave Ranges. One new variety is also mentioned, 

 Trichinium alopecuroideum F. v. M. var. rubriflorum, near Oodna- 

 datta. M. G. Aikman (Kew).

 N° 10. (Trans. Roy. Soc. South Australia. XL. p. 459—463. 1916.) 



20 species are mentioned including the description and figure 

 of one new species Phebalium bullatum, South Australia: River 

 Murray, Ninety-mile Desert, Wilkawatt, Karoonda; Vic- 

 toria: near Lake Hindmarsh, north-west of Lake Albacutya. 



A few comments are supplied on the nomenclature of the genus 

 Stylidium. M. G. Aikman (Kew).
