EpACRIDACE-ffi. 



These are numerous, but of little interest. The genera 

 are all found in other parts of the continent, with the solitary 

 exception of Conostephlum,^'^'^ of which two species are known, 

 both rather pretty shrubs, with one-sided spikes of flowers, 

 whose pallid calyx strikingly contrasts with their conical 

 corolla. The greater number of species belong to Leuco- 

 pogon, but none of them deserve particular record. Of 

 Lissantlie^^^ there is a noble form, already introduced and 

 known in the gardens by the false name of Leucopogo7i verti- 

 dllatus ; it has fascicles of small flowers, but its quasi-verti- 

 cillated leaves, with long intervals between them, give it a 

 singular and handsome aspect. Th6re are several Anderso- 

 nias, among which A. aristata,^^^ with dense heads of 

 bearded flowers surrounded by an aristate calyx, is the most 

 deserving notice. To these have to be added a small red- 

 flowered Stenanthera,^^'^ a long- flowered rather handsome 

 Styphelia,^^^ and two very beautiful Lysinemas.^^^ 



GOODENIACE^. 



The species of this order are very numerous, and are 

 chiefly blue-flowered ; the proportion of yellow species being
