considerably longer than broad ; style elongated, capillary-thin, 

 near the base pubescent ; stigmas minute ; torus densely long- 

 villous ; fruit unusually large, almost globular, very hard, doubly 

 five-celled, ten-seeded, densely beset with rather short flexuous 

 fascicular-hispid bristlets ; seeds considerably compressed. 



In the vicinity of Prince Regent's River ; Bradshaw and Allen. 

 Near Cambridge Gulf ; Keiller. 



Leaves to 5 inches long and to 2 inches broad, often lobeless. 

 Length of petiole at an average one inch. Pedicels conspicuous. 

 Sepals about J inch long or still longer, especially when the appen- 

 dage becomes enlarged and divided. Petals already dropped from 

 only flower obtained. Stamens fully half an inch long, if not 

 longer. Style measuring about § inch in length. Size of fruit 

 quite one inch ; the vestiture comparatively short, but intricate ; 

 pericarp very thick and tough ; secondary dissepiments nearly as 

 thick as the others. Seeds J-J inch long, outside brownish. 



In some respects allied to T. Fabreana, from the Marianes, but 

 with a different indument, longer more pointed leaves, elongated 

 stipules, much larger flowers, almost innumerable stamens, also 

 fruits of greater size and of interwoven vestiture. From T. 

 Johnston^ to which it comes nearest in fruit-indument, easily 

 separable by the conspicuously longer but less close vestiture of 

 the branches, pedicels and sepals, by the larger and particularly 

 broader leaves, by the much greater size of the flowers and fruits, 

 by the much longer but less straight and more hispid fruit-setules, 

 and by the number of the dissepiments and seeds. 



T. Winneckeana stands still further apart ; its vestiture is quite 

 short, its leaves are comparatively small, its fruit-setules rigidly 

 straight and only short-hispidulous or getting glabrous. That 

 plant was found also on the Ashburton River by Mr. H. St. Carey. 

 T. appendicidata is devoid of the long hairlets of our new plant, 

 and has the fruits considerably smaller, rigidly setulous and 

 doubly three-celled.
