been cited by Potts in " Out in the Open," p. 244, but it seems well to 

 record it again notwithstanding. 



Asplenium flabellifolium, Cav. 



South Island : Canterbury — Totara forest, Upper Rakaia, at altitude of 

 about 800 m. L. C. 



The above altitude is somewhat in advance of that given in the Manual, 

 p. 988. 



Cyathea medullaris (Forst. f.), Sw. 



In my report on Stewart Island, p. 45, the habitat is accidentally given 

 as Half-moon Bay instead of Horse-shoe Bay, though it is correctly marked 

 on the map. 



Histiopteris incisa (Thunb.), J. Sm. 



South Island : Canterburv- — Head of Rakaia, on Mount Murray, at 

 about altitude of 1,000 m. M'. C. Gudex ! 



Polypodium Billardieri (Willd.), C. Chr. ; syn., P. australe, Mett. 



This is stated in my report on Stewart Island, p. 47, as " making ex- 

 tensive colonies on the forest-floor," which is incorrect, the species occurring 

 only on trees or rocks. The statement was really intended to refer to 

 P. diver sifolium, Willd., which is universally known by New Zealand botanists 

 as P. Billardieri. 



Polystichum cystotegia (Hook.), Armstg. 



South Island : Canterbury — Source of River Rakaia, amongst stones. 

 M. C. Gudex ! 



Spermophyta. 

 Aciphylla brevistyle (Hook. f.). 



South Island : Otago — Hector Mountains ; subalpine. W. Willcox ! 



Aciphylla Dieffenbac^iii (F. Muell.), T. Kirk. 



Chatham Islands : Chatham Island, on cliff at Te Tuku. A. A. Dor- 

 rien Smith ! 



This plant was thought to be possibly extinct on Chatham Island, but 

 Captain Dorrien Smith reports that it is plentiful in the above locality. 

 The truth is that most likely it is quite eaten out on the ordinary ground, 

 but that it occurs in various places on precipitous cliffs in the west and 

 south. Mr. H. H. Travers states that it occurs in a similar situation on 

 Pitt Island. 



Aciphylla Dobsoni, Hook. f. 



South Island : Canterbury — Summit of the Liebig Range. Johannes C. 

 Andersen ! 



Aciphylla pilifera (Hook, f.), var. pinnatifidum, T. Kirk. 



South Island : Canterbur}-^ — Mount Murray, head of River Rakaia, on 

 rocky ground, at about 1,400 m. altitude. L. C. 



Aira Caryophyllea, L. (introduced).
