 Victoria 53 . . 101 



The Introduced Plants of this class are becoming widely diffused 

 throughout the Colony, especially the grasses. I have included 

 Cynodon dactylon, (Pers.) and Paspalum distichum, (Linn.) amongst 

 the indigenous species, but it seems highly probable that they 

 accompanied the early settlers. With respect to the first, which 

 has a wider range than the other, Mr. Bentham remarks that, 

 " although now generally spread over the settled parts of extra- 

 tropical Australia, it may have been introduced with cultivation 

 as suggested by E. Brown."
