472* NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 



Melaleuca Deanei, F.v.M. -Cook's River (A. A. Hamilton). 

 Locality given in the " Handbook of the Flora " is Lane Cove 

 River. Mr. Deane informs me that the type specimens (described 

 by Baron von Mueller, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., 1886) were taken 

 from isolated plants. Mr. Camfield has also collected specimens 

 from individual plants between Arncliffe and the National Park. 

 In view of the possible extinction of this rare plant I would 

 suggest its cultivation. I may mention that the seeds do not 

 mature until the second or third season. 



Cyperus plat i/stylis, 'R.Br. —Ma.n\y (A. A. Hamilton). Recorded 

 in Woolls' " Plants Indigenous in the Neighbourhood of Sydney; " 

 only one locality is given elsewhere, viz., Hawkesbury River. 



Sporobulus diarider, Palis. — Cook's River (A. A. Hamilton; 

 Dec, 1900). The localities given for this grass are with one 

 exception from the Blue Mountains, north through Queensland. 

 Mr. Fred Ti^rner in his work " Australian Grasses " gives the 

 locality and range as coastal districts of New South Wales and 

 Queensland. Specimens in the National Herbarium are from the 

 Blue Mountains and the interior; also from Homebush (Coll. 

 J. H. Maiden). 



Lindsaya trichomanoides, Dryand. — Bulli (M. T. Perry; May, 

 1900). In the Proceedings of this Society for 1886 (p. 929) will 

 be found a Note on this species by the Rev. Dr. Woolls confirming 

 an earlier doubtful record in the " Flora Austral iensis " of its 

 occurrence at the Kurrajong."^ The " Handbook of the Flora " 

 gives the locality as Clyde River district. Specimens in the 

 National Herbarium are from the Pacific Islands and New 

 Zealand. The specimens under notice are identical with the last 

 mentioned. 



* Some of Mr. Selkirk's specimens from the Kurrajong, with fructification, 

 were exhibited by Dr. Woolls in illustration of his Note, and were afterwards 

 presented by him to the Society's herbarium— [Ed.].
