Series i. Thalamiflorae. 

 1. Ranunculace.e. 



Clematis glycinoides, DC. This species is not very common 

 on the Clears or Basalt Masses, but it is very common in the 

 valleys between the sandstone ranges. Flowering period, July 

 and August. 



Ranunculus lappaceus, Sm. This is perhaps the most common 

 of all Buttercups on the Clears; it is also common on the sand- 

 stone. October to April. 



R. RivuLARis, Banks ik Sol. This was only found on the 

 Clears in one place — Condon Clear — but is very common in Putty 

 Creek. 



R. HiRTUS, Banks & Sol. December to March. 



DlLLENIACE^. 



HiBBERTiA DIFFUSA, R.Br. Not common on the Clears, but 

 very common on the sandy ilats. This is the only species of this 

 genus I have seen on the volcanic formation, though such species 

 as //. acicularis, F.v.M., and H. peduncidata^ R.Br., occur on the 

 sandsUme. 



V I L A R I E ^. 



Viola betonicifolia, Sm. This species is not as common on 

 the basaltic formation as on the sandstone. April to June. 



V. HEDERACEA, Labill. Common on the Clears in moist places. 

 July. 



P 1 T T O S P R E .E. 



BuRSARiA SPINOSA, Cav. Rare on the basalt, but very common 

 on the sandstone, where it is a pest. January to March. I have 

 noticed that specimens growing on Darkey Creek, Bulga, reach a 

 height of over 20 feet, and have large leaves; while those here 

 rarely exceed 9 feet.
