Flowers compact, corymbose, corolla 



about 1 inch in diameter T. jasminoldes. 



Corymbs of 6 to 8 flowers, corolla about 



2 inches long, purplish T. Ilillii. 



The small tubular cream-coloured flowers of this species give it 

 an appearance quite distinct from the other well-known Austra- 

 lian Tecomas, so that it is very easy to recognise in its native 

 habitat. 



Our idea to make this a variety of T. australis was overcome 

 by the fact that T. australis with all its variations of foliage 

 preserves, wherever found, a very constant flower, which is very 

 distinct from this new species. 



As T. australis is also found at Mullumbimby, it can readily 

 be compared on the spot with the new species. 



Besides its distinctive flowers the foliage is also characteristic. 

 The foliage of T. australis with all its variations of coast, table- 

 land and far interior specimens in no way resembles the large, 

 coriaceous leaflets of this new species. 



The calyx of purplish-brown may also be noticed. 



We regret that we have not succeeded in obtaining the fruit, 

 but there appears very little hope of obtaining any from the plants 

 from which this diagnosis is made, as they are so situated on a 

 vertical bank that all the fruit must inevitably fall into Mullum- 

 bimby Creek. 



Discovered on the banks of Mullumbimby Creek by W. 

 Baeuerlen, and who, although collecting systematically in this 

 district for over four years, has only seen one plant. 



Named in honour of Mr. Fred. Manson Bailey, F.L.S., the 

 Government Botanist of Queensland.
