This plant was recorded as B. sterilis by Bentham, with 

 which species it is closely allied,- differing chiefly in its stouter 

 character, larger and less drooping spikelets and stouter awns. 

 Mr. Maiden and the Kew authorities recognise it as a distinct 

 species, and hence for the sake of uniformity the original records 

 of B. sterilis may be reduced to the following: — 



Bromus sterilis, L. (Gramineae). 



Upper Goulburn River, Victoria, A. D. Hardy, 1894: Goul- 

 burn Valle}'', Victoria, G. H. Robinson, 1894 : Dookie, Victoria,

 Rivers, Miss Holding, 1895, also Lake Bonnev, South Australia,

A new locality in Victoria for this plant, previously recorded 

 from the North-West. This species was recorded by Mr. Walter 

 in the Vict. Nat., Vol. XVI., p. 100, from the South, but there 

 were no specimens from the South in W^alter's Herbarium, pur- 

 chased by the Government for the National Herbarium. 



1 Recorded in Benth. Fl. Aust., vol. vii., p. 662 as B. sterilis. 



2 This was recorded in Kenth. Fl. Aust., i.e., as B. aterilix, but placed as from a Ta>i. 

 inanian locality, which is evidently a mistake.
