LlLIACEiE. 



Blandfordia fiammea, Hook., Bot. Mag., 4819. 



This beautiful plant lifts up its head of drooping flowers in 

 marshy places near Burleigh Heads, and Nerang Creek. It grows 

 together with its larger variety aurea. The swamps north of 

 Dunwich present a grand appearance when in the months of 

 December and January these Blandfordiae are in full bloom. No 

 garden ought to be without this flower, as for beauty it can vie 

 with the best of the lily tribe. 



Tricoryne platypiera, Eeichb. 



This cannot be confused with T. anceps, as the stems, besides 

 being slightly flattened, carry wings of about two lines. It grows 

 near Eight Mile Plains. 



Caesia vittata, E. Br., Prod. 277. 

 In grassy flats all over the country south of the Logan Eiver. 



Alismaceje. 

 Damasonium australe, Salib. 

 In marshy places near Tambourine.
