Ligusticum diversifolium. 



I am indebted to Mr. F. G. Gibbs for a fruiting specimen 

 of this species. It looks wonderfully unlike specimens of L. 

 carnosulum in the same stage, on account of the great difference 

 in the involucral bracts, which, as stated in the original descrip- 

 tion, are very large and ternately multifid in L. carnosaltoit, 

 and small, linear, and entire in L. diversifolium. The fruit is 

 very similar in both species, but appears to be more spongy 

 and corky in L. diversifolium. 



Ligusticum aromaticum. 



Slopes of Tongariro, Ngauruhoe, and Ruapehu, abundant, 

 ascending to the summit of the first-mentioned mountain ; 

 altitude, 6,500 ft. ; T. F. C. 



Many years ago Mr. J. H. Kerry-Nicholls gave me specimens 

 collected at an altitude of nearly 7,500 ft. on Ruapehu. 



XXXIV. Araliace^e. 

 Pseudopanax ferox. 



Mr. D. L. Poppdwell informs me that this occurs in Croy- 

 don Bush, near Gore, Southland, which is the most southern 

 locality yet recorded.
