Flora, is limited chiefly to the Percy Islands. From the 

 Fragmenta (Vol. 9, 175), we learn that it extends to Adam's 

 Bay, Cape York, Rockingham Bay, Edgecombe Bay, and 

 Fitzroy's Islands ; whilst the Bai'on, in the same account, intro- 

 duces another species from Rockingham Bay, viz., C. tomentosum. 

 The Malpighiaeere are confined to solitary species of Ryssopterys 

 and Tristellateia from Northern Queensland; the Burseracese, 

 to one species of Garuga from N. Australia, and one of Canarium 

 from N. Australia and Queensland, to which Baron Mueller has 

 added Ganophyllum falcatum from Port Denison, Rockingham 

 Bay, and Torres Straits ; and the Ilicineae to Byronia Arnhemensis 

 (F. v. M.), to which the same author has supplemented Ilex 

 peduncularis (F. v. M.), from the woods near Rockingham Bay. 



Excluding these four orders from the Flora of N. S. Wales, 

 it appears that, in this colony, the orders, genera, and species 

 (that is so far as yet determined) may be arranged as follows : — 



Series I. Thalamiflor^e. 



Orders. Genera. Species. 



22 68 167 



Series II. Disciflor^e. 



Orders. Genera. Species. 



13 60 174 



Total 35 128 341 



The plants which have become naturalized may be referred to 

 8 orders, including 25 genera, and 29 species, viz. 



1. Ranunculus muricatus, (L.) 



2. Argemone mexicana, (L.) 



3. Fumaria officinalis, (L.) 



4. Lepidium sativum, (L.)
