 The forms here included in this species differ from each other somewhat 

 in the size, acuteness and pubescence of the leaves. It is not improb- 

 able that some of them may be B. hasalis, Anderss., B. parvifolia. 

 Hook, f., or B. falcifolia, Hook, f., nearly related species which, to 

 judge from the material at hand, do not appear likely to prove distinct 

 in nature. 



B. falcifolta, Hook. f. (3), 219; Anderss. (1), 193, & (2), 77. B. 

 lancifolia, Anderss. (1), 191, & (2), 76, evidently a typographical error 

 iov falcifolia. — Albemarle Isl.: Macrae'? ace. to Hook, f., I.e. 

 Endemic.

 (hb. Gr.). Endemic.

 long, rounded at the apex. — Charles Isl. : in dry and grassy places
