1208 NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 



Mr. Fletcher exhibited (1) for the Rev. J. Milne Curran, of 

 Cobar, a specimen of the rare plant Grevillea ajiethifolia, R. Br., 

 in fruit, and read the following note from Mr. Curran. "Baron 

 von Mueller tells me that this plant has not been collected since 

 Cunningham found it near Peel's Range, and that until now the 

 fruit has been unknown to botanists. I have met with it in only 

 one locality in this district, a few miles west from Nymagee Copper 

 Mine, growing on sandy soil — geological formation Devonian." 

 (2) For Dr. Dixson, photographs of two Fin-Back Whales 

 (Balcenoptera) male and female, captured at Twofold Bay last 

 September. 



The President exhibited the fossils described in his paper, 

 together with a drawing of Platyceps Wilkinsonii.
