318 SPECIMENS OF PLANTS COLLECTED AT KING GEORGE's SOUND, 



Plants. With regard to the distributiou of the latter, it appears 

 that, of the known species in Australia now reckoned about 9000, 

 they occur respectively in 



Western Australia 3559 



South Australia 1904 



Victoria 1904 



New South Wales 3260 



This calculation fully bears out the importance of the Western 

 Flora, whilst the fact remains, in reference to the Floras of the 

 S.W. and S.E. regions, that the genera of the former are much 

 larc^er than those of the latter, and the species proportionally more 

 numerous.
