408 NOTES ON THE FLORA OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS, 



escaped the notice of collectors, as no difficulty was experienced 

 ill tracing the plants from the roadside, most of the journey 

 between Springwood and Glenbrook. It was seen to be excep- 

 tionally plentiful in the neighbourhood of the 41 -mile-post, but 

 only a few scattered bushes were noted at Glenbrook, on the 

 northern side of the old railway-station]; P. myrtilloides Sieb., 

 (2), Wentworth Falls to Eskbank; P. angulata R.Br., Woodford 

 to Mt. Victoria [an individualistic species, which, like most of 

 its congeners, fruits freely. No seedlings have been noted in 

 the neighbourhood of any of the invariably isolated plants known 

 to the writer, though the seeds germinate readily under artificial 

 treatment]; P. acerosa Sieb., (2), Valley Heights to Eskbank. 



Grevillea asplenifolia K.Br., Springwood, Lawson, on the 

 banks of watercourses, in brush-gullies; G. laurifolia Sieb., (2), 

 Valley Heights to Eskbank; G. Gaudichaudii K.Br., Wentworth 

 Falls, Katoomba, Black heath, Clarence [This rare species was, 

 until recently, known only from Wentworth Falls and Katoomba 

 (a few isolated plants). In viow of the question of natural 

 hybridism raised by Mr. J. J. Fletcher in relation to this species 

 (These Proceedings, 1910, p. 434) it is of interest to note that, at 

 Clarence, it was again found (an individual specimen) on the 

 slope of a hill leading into a swamp, G. laurifolia being noted on 

 the plateau above, and G. acanfhi/olia in the swamp below]; G. 

 acanthifolia A. Cunn., Wentworth Falls, to west of Eskbank, in 

 swamps; G. mucromdata R.Br., Nepean to Valley Heights; G. 

 phylicoides R.Br., Nepean to Wentworth Falls; G. sericea \i.\W., 

 Glenbrook to Blackheath and Mt. Tomah. 



Hakea pugioniforrms Cav., (2), Woodford to Eskbank, in 

 swamps, and on dry, stony ridges; //. saligna R.Br.,(l),(2), Hazel- 

 brook, Lawson, Blackheath, in moist, sheltered gullies; H. pro- 

 pinqua A. Cunn. ,(2), Linden to Eskbank, chiefly in swamps; H. 

 acicM^aris K.Br., (1), Nepean, Glenbiook: H. microcarpa R.Br.,
