Besides these lists, many contributions to the flora are to be 

 found scattered in Bentham's Flora Australiensis (1863 — 1878), 1 

 in F. v. Muller's Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae 

 I— XII (1858—1882), and in his monographs. The "List of Extra- 

 tropic West Australian Plants" published in the Western Austra- 

 lian Yearbook for 1900—01 (vol. I, Perth, 1902) is a revised 

 and augmented edition by A. Morrison of an earlier list compiled 

 by F. v. Müller. In spite of its title it contains — according 

 to information in a footnote — also the names of plants '"re- 

 cently recorded from within the tropical line"; but being a mere 

 enumeration of plant-names it does not contain any indication 

 as to which part of W. A. a species has been found in, and it is 

 therefore impossible to decide if it came from the tropical or the 

 extra-tropical W. A. The list states only that it has been taken 

 within the borders of the State of W. A. 



In some recent contributions to the flora of Australia we 

 find several records for the tropical W. A.: viz. in K. Domin's 

 papers, 2 and in E. Cheel's list of plants collected by the Swedish 

 Zoologist Dr. E. Mjöberg in W. A. and Queensland. 3 A paper 

 by B. P. G. Hochreutiner 4 on his collections of plants from 

 different parts of the world contains a few records from W. A. 

 where he went on a flying visit in 1905. 



Valuable contributions to our knowledge of the flora of the 

 farthest north and north-east of W. A. are afforded by the dif- 

 ferent papers on the flora of the Northern Territory published 

 recently from S. Australia by A. J. Ewart and others. 



Most of the records in the papers here given are the results 

 of short and chance visits to the country; Dr. Mjöberg's collec- 

 tion, however, was made during a longer stay in the Kimberley 

 district. It must be admitted that the collection is not large, 

 and it is really a pity that this excellent explorer, who spent 



1 In Bentham's Flora all the earlier records have been incorporated.
