568 Transactions. — Botany. 



Myosotis pulvinaris, Hook. f. — Lofty mountains of W. and 

 N.W. Mount Pisa; Old Man Eange ; Hector Mountains ; 

 Mount Cardrona; &c. (4,500ft.-6,000ft.). I cannot dis- 

 tinguish M. hectori, Hook, f., from this, and agree with 

 Mr. N. E. Brown tliat it is not distinct from the present 

 species. 



Myosotis spathulata, Forst.- — In bush on Inch-Chitha. I 

 have observed this nowliere else in Otago. 



Myosotis Antarctica, Hook, f.— Not rare on the uplands and 

 mountains of the N. and C. ; more uncommon in the S. 

 Kurow Flats ; Mount Ida ; Mount Cardrona ; Crown 

 Range. Ascends to 4,000ft. 



Myosotis australis, Br.— Not rare on dry hill-sides of C. and 

 N. Mount Ida; Mount St. Bathan's; Speargrass Hill; 

 &c. 



Myosotis porsteei, Eoem. and Sch. — Not rare in the western 

 valleys. Clinton Valley ; head of Lake Wakatipu ; Upper 

 Hawea ; &c. 



Myosotis capitata, Hook. f. — Eare on spray-washed cliffs of 

 E. and S. coasts. Dunedin ; Catlin's ; Paterson's Inlet. 

 The blue-flowered form occurs near Dunedin ; elsewhere 

 the flowers are pale, nearly white. 



Myosotis traversii, Hook. f. — Eare on the mountains of the 

 N.W. Mount Arnould, Hawea (6,000ft.). 



Myosotis cheesemanii, Petrie. — Mount Pisa and Hector 

 Mountains (6,000ft.). 



Myosotis albo-sericea. Hook. f. — Dry rocky stations near 

 Cromwell; now nearly extinct in this its only known 

 habitat. 



Myosotis goyeni, Petrie. — Eocky slopes at Arrowtown and 

 Lake Hawea ; shingly terraces of Cardrona Valley. 



ExARRHENA MACRANTHA (?), Hook. f. — Eather rare on steep 

 rocky faces on the mountains of the N.W. INIount Aspir- 

 ing; Mount Cardrona ; Mount Bonpland (5,o00it.-6,000ft.). 

 I thmk it not unlikely that this plant is distinct from the 

 true E. macrantha, though at Kew they are regarded as of 

 the same species. 



Tetrachondra hamiltonii, Petrie. — Eather rare on moist 

 lowlands of E. and S. Plateau between Lee Stream and 

 Sti-ath Taieri ; Hindon School-grounds ; Waipahi ; Inver- 

 cargill. Ascends to 1,800ft. 



Convolvulus tuguriorum, Forst. — Common in bush and 

 scrub.
