BY THE REV. B. SCORTECIITNI, LL.B., P.L.S. 215 



what remains undone in this department we may truly say that 

 ittle or nothing has been done towards it. It has been asserted 

 by high authorities that the fungal flora alone equals in richness 

 and variety of its forms that of the planerogamous flora. 

 The Australian mycologic flora is as yet scarcely one-eighth of 

 the phanerogamic, and in its turn one-third of the whole known 

 cryptogamic flora, so that we may well assert that only a small 

 fraction of cryptogamic Botany is known to us. 



Ra.nunculace.53. 



Eanuncidus lappacetis, Sin., in Eees' Cycl. 

 This species, although most common and very attractive in rich 

 pasturage on account of its beautiiul golden cups, has no previous 

 record of its occurrence among the members of the South 

 Queensland Mora. 



MAGNOLIACEiE. 



Dnjmis dipeiala, F. v. Muell., PL Yict, I. 21. 



From the Southern slopes of Mount Lindsay, (New South 

 Wales territory) this pepper scrub may be traced westwards in 

 the dense scrubs up to Wilson's Peak and through the Dividing 

 ranges, eastwards to Point Danger in the scrubs about Talle- 

 budgera, and northwards at the top of Tambourine mountains. 



Cruciferte. 

 Cardamine Mrsuta, Linn. 

 Yery rarely met with. 



Capparide;e. 



Capparis Mitchell ii, Lindl. 



A few individuals of this species so much resembling C nohili%t 

 may be noticed along the edges of scrubs at the head of the 

 Logan, and as one moves westwards towards AVarwick they 

 gradually become more plentiful.
