456 botany of rylstonk and goulburn river districts, 



Campanulace^. 



IsOTOMA AXILLARIS, Lincll. Bylong Ranges; November. 



I. FLUViATiLis, F.v.M. Bylong; November-. 

 Wahlbkbergia gracilis, a. DC. Everywhere; November. 



Epacridb^. 



Styphblia l.eta, R.Br., var. angustifolia, Benth. At Bylong 

 and Murrumbo on the sandy flats and sandstone ridges. 

 Bentham (B. Fl. iv, p. 147) queries the colour of the 

 flowers, but in every instance I found them red. I have 

 never found this variety near Sydney. 



S. L.ETA, Pt. Br., var. glabra, var.nov I am in doubt 

 about the specimens placed here under a new variety, 

 but I prefer this to proposing a new species. The 

 flowers are red, the sepals acute, and the leaves narrow- 

 lanceolate, — characters not included under Bentham's 

 description of the species; Camboon; October. 



AsTROLOMA HUMiFUSUM, Pers. " Groundberry." Everywhere; 

 apparently in flower and fruit all the year round. At 

 Murrumbo it is quite an erect shrub; from 1-2 feet high. 



Melichrus urceolatus, R. Br. The s|)ecimens found on the 

 western slope at Rylstone and Mt. Vincent correspond 

 to A. Cunningham's M. mediios ; while those on the 

 eastern slope at MuiTumbo to his M. erubescens. I 

 think they are good species, but as Bentham has placed 

 them under M. urceolatus, R.Br., I have followed 

 his classification. September; in fruit in November and 

 December. 



Brachyloma daphxoides, Benth. Only seen at Murrumbo, but 

 no doubt common. 



Lissanthe STRiGOSA, R. Br. Murrumbo; September and October. 



Leucopogon lanceolatus, R. Br. Kelgoola; September.
