OF NEW SOUTH WALES. 121 



Bean v., N. tiiherosa, Presl.,=J.. cordifolium, Sw., Polypodium 

 rufescenSy Bl., Handbook =-4. decompositum, Spreng. The genera 

 Humaia, Cav., Microlepia, PresL, DennstcBdia Bernhardi, and 

 Bicksoiiia duhia, Gaudich, are included in Davallia, Sm., to which 

 are added Davallia tripinnata, F. v. M., collected by W. Hill on 

 the Bellenden Ker Range, and D. solida, Sm., found by M. 

 Thozet on Hummocky Island. 



Dicksonia lanata, Colenso, specimens of which I have received 

 from Mr. Hartmann, collected from Southern Queensland ; and 

 from Mr. Moulday, collected on the Bunya Mountains, not far 

 from Dalby. 



Bichsonia Yoimgia (C. Moore) is said to have been gathered 

 by W. Hill on the Bellenden Ker Kange. 



Of the species of Trichomanes, the species I took for T. 

 filicula, Bory, is T. pixidiferum, Linn. This was abundant on the 

 rocks in the deep gullies of the Trinity Bay Range. 



Bory's T. fceniculaceum is called T. parviflorum, Poir, in the 

 " Flora." T. Javanitum, Bl., found on the Daintree by Fitzalan, 

 is an addition. 



The very distinct species of Schizea Fosteri, Sprengel, which 

 I found at Maroochie, has been overlooked or mixed with S. 

 diclwtoma, Sw., as in the Synopsis, but besides this latter species 

 being a much more robust plant, they choose always very different 

 habitats. 



I feel sure that th.e fern I found so plentiful on the ranges at 

 the back of Cardwell, and of which I brought to Brisbane 

 specimens, both dried and living, was Blechnum nitidum, Presl., 

 as given in the handbook, but in the Flora it is stated to be only 

 a slight variety of £. cartilagineum. This was perhaps on 

 account of my having neglected to say in handbook that the 

 Queensland form, formed a caudal like rhizome of from 6 in. to 

 24 in. high. 



The genera Thamnopteris, Presl., Diplazium, Sw., and Calh'p- 

 teris, Bory, are all under Aspleniwn in the Flora, to which are 

 added A. onaximum, Don., of the Daintree River and Rockingham 

 Bay ; and A. sylvaticum; Presl., also of latter place.
