SAPINDACE^. 



DODON.EA VISCORA L. 



D. lanceolata F.v.M., of Hemsley, Joe. cit., p. 234, should he D. 

 viscosa L., according to Prof. Radlkofer in a letter to me. 

 MYRTACE.E. 

 ACICALYPTUS FULLAGARI F.V.M. 



Further on the road (Erskine Valley — lower road) where the 

 aneroid gave a level of 700-1800 feet, Mr. Hedley notes the 

 " Scaly Bark '" as fine large trees. 



PRIMULACE.E. 

 Anagallis arvensis L. 

 Collected on the Island by Mr. Hedley. It is a new record. 

 OLEACE.E. 

 NoTEL.i:A quadristaminea Hemsl. 

 On entering the Erskine Valley by the " lower road," i.e., the 

 track along the Lidgbird cliffs, we came on a forest of Blue Plum 

 (These Proceedings, xxiv., 1899, p.381). 

 BIGNONIACE.E. 

 Tecoma austro-caledonica Burm. 

 Mr. Hedley writes : — " In view of your note (These Proceed- 

 ings, xxiii., 1898, p. 132) on Tecoma, I put in a few Howers. Mr. 

 Dun verified my observation that the Island plant is without 

 anv smell. I believe T. anstralis has an unpleasant odour." The 

 Australian plants placed under the name 2\ australis R.Br., 

 require further examination, and will probably be found to 

 include more than one species. The coastal (Australian) form 

 has sweet-scented flowers. The flowers of specimens from Mudgee, 

 Werris Creek, and some other Xew South Wales localities, have 

 an offensive smell, attracting blow-flies.
