OF NEW SOUTH ^'ALES. 119 



Gymnogramma, Desv., and JJictyogramma, Fee, are placed in 

 the genus Grammitis ; but, unless it is meant to be represented 

 by Grammitis ampla, F. v Mueller, what I take to be Selliguea 

 pothifolia, J. Sm., is left out. This is one of the most conspicuous 

 objects in our far northern scrubs, as it completely clothes the 

 stems of the trees with its large pinnatifid fronds, that rival, both 

 in size and beauty, Rhaphidophora pinnata, Schott, a rampant 

 climbing plant of Aroideae. ' 



Diclidopteris augustisshna, of Brakenridge, is placed under Sir 

 William Hooker's n^me of Monngravune Ju7ighuhnii ; Woodwardia 

 is described as Doodia ; the genus Schizoloma is placed with 

 Lindscea, the species L. media, R. Brown, as L. flahellulata, Dry; L. 

 concinna, J. Sm.,as L.cultrata Sw.; L.lohata,Vo\v,\^ added, having 

 been collected byN. Taylor at the Endeavour River, and Hull River, 

 by W. Hill. No alterations are made in the species of Adiantum, 

 in my book, but the following are added : — A. ajjine, Willd, which 

 I gathered at Maroochie some few years ago ; A. capillus-veneris, 

 Linn., collected by O'Shanesy at Northampton ;* A. diaphanum, 

 Bl., collected on the Daintree by Fitzalan, and Southern Queens- 

 land by Hartmann. The two distinct species of Cheilanthes — G. 

 sleheri, Kunze, and C. nudiusnda, T. jVIoore, are placed as C. 

 tenuifoUa, Sw., without being allowed to rank as varieties. To 

 this is added C. caudata, R. Br., having been again met with by 

 Daintree on the Gilbert River. The genus Litohroehia, Presl., is 

 placed with Pteris, Linn. ; L. vespertilionis, Presl., as P. incisa 

 Th, ; L. trijmrtita and Milneana, Baker, as P. marginata, Bory ; 

 P. crenata, Sw,, as P. ensiformis, Burm. One is also added to our 

 Pteris, P. comans, Forst, plants having been met with by Mr. 

 Hartmann in Southern Queensland. J. Smith's genus Platyloma 

 is also placed under Pteris ; thus P. Brownii, J, Sm., becomes 

 P. paradoaa, Baker. In Notholcena, Robert Brown's name N. 

 vellea is used for N. lanuginosa, Desv. ; Glieila.ntlies distans, Braun, 

 will now be found in the Flora as N. diHans, R Br., N. pumilio, 

 R. Br., must be added to Queensland ferns, having been met 



* There is probably some mistake in the habitat given in the Flora for Adiantum 

 capillus-veneris, Linn. For Northampton, O'Shanesj-, perhaps Rockhampton is meant. 

 But until I saw it in the Flora I was not aware that the form was indigenous to Australia.
