Port Hedland, a weed (No. 1136, 3. Nov. 1914). 



The specimens do not agree fully with the plants of P. sphacela- 

 tus from Queensland, and I think De Candolle (Prodr. V, 455) 

 rightly described three species under what is now taken as one. 

 But as my specimens are rather poor with regard to leaves owing 

 to the attacks of some "mining" insects, I leave them at present 

 under the old name.
