Eucalyptus clavigera A. Cunningh., in Walper, Repert. II (1843) 

 926: Benth. Fl. Austr. Ill (1866) 250; W. V. Fitzgerald, in Müll. 

 Bot. Soc. II (1903) 43. 



var. Dallachyana (Benth. 1. c, sub. E. tesselari F. v. Müll.) Maiden 

 MS.; E. papuana F. v. Müll., Descr. Papuan PL I (1875) 8. 



Derby, a middle sized tree with white bark and flexible 

 pendulous young branches with nearly open flower buds (No. 526, 

 7. Nov. 1914). common (see PL III, fig. 1). 



Broome, with flower buds (No. 528, 5. Nov. 1914). This 

 form differs from the specimens from Derby by the scurfy bark 

 of the young flexible branches and by the somewhat broader 

 leaves. 



Eucalyptus dichromophloia F. v. Müll., Journ. Linn. Soc. Ill (1858) 

 89; Benth. Fl. Austr. Ill (1866) 257. 



Broome, with ripe fruits (No. 527, 5. Nov. 1914). 



Eucalyptus pyrophora Benth., Fl. Austr., Ill (1866) 257. 



Derby, with ripe fruits (No. 525, 7. Nov. 1914). 



Apocynaceæ. 



Carissa lanceolata R. Br., Prodr. Fl. Nov. Holl. (1810) 468; Ben- 

 tham, Fl. Austr. IV (1869)306; C. Brownii F. v. Müll., Fragm. Phytogr. 

 Austr. IV (1863) 45, saltern ex parte. 



Broome, (No. 1158, 5. Nov. 1914). A small spiny shrub in 

 full flower (fl. white, fragrant). 



Convolvulaceæ. 



Cressa cretica L. Sp. pi. (1753) 223 ; Benth. , FL Austr. IV (1 869) 437. 



Derby, near the jetty, abundant (No. 1168, 7. Nov. 1914). 

 The Australian plant (C. australis R. Br.) is distinguished by its 

 large and broad leaves and other characters from specimens of 

 the northern hemisphere. 



Evolvulus alsinoides L., var. sericeus Benth., Fl. Austr. IV 

 (1869) 438. 



Derby, sparingly along the jetty (No. 1169; 7. Nov. 1914). 



This variety with adpressed white hairs (also on the outer 

 side of the calyx) seems fairly distinct from the common E. alsi- 

 noides. The flowers are sky-blue. Recorded beforehand from 

 Port Walcott (W. A.) and Islands of the Gulf of Carpentaria. 



Borraginaceæ. 



Heliotropium curassavicum L. Sp. pi. (1753) 130; Bentham, Fl. 

 Austr. IV (1869) 393.
