nite terms. Hence it seems advisable to retain two species as 

 above for this set of plant forms, but certainly not more than 

 two, and to refer G. ericifolia to G. lanigera, G. divaricata to 

 G. rosmarinifolia.

Port Essington, North Australia. 



This Malayan genus apparently extends to North Australia, 

 and may possibly be also represented there by other species 

 yet to be discovered.

Cradle Mountains, Tasmania, C. Sutton, January, 1911. 



This appeared at first to be possibly a new species allied to 

 H. tunhridgense, Sm., and H. multifidum, Sw., partly on 

 account of the regular occurrence of the sori in pairs on the 

 upper surfaces of the axils of the pinnules. Later specimens 

 showed that the sori also occur singly, and that paired sori 

 occur in specimens originally referred to a variety Wihoni 

 of H. tuiibridgense, but now generally recognised as a distinct 

 species as above. The plant differs from H. twnhridgense in 

 having a more cylindrical and less spathulate column, and pear- 

 shaped induzia (when adult), instead of more orbicular ones. 

 The sporangia are perhaps more like those of H. miiltifidum, 

 but somewhat smaller. 



Malcolmia maritima, R. Br. " Virginian Stock.'' Cruciferae. 



Claremont, West Australia, Dr. Stoward, 6/9/1911. 



This hardy annual, a native of Southern Europe, often grown 

 in gardens, is now evidently growing wild in the Claremont 

 district of West Australia, and may be classed an exotic not 

 vet sufEcientlv established to be considered naturalised.
