The specimen was labelled from another source (probably 

 Diels and Pritzel), " Acacia stereoj)hyUa, Meissn., syn. A. 

 cibaria, F. v. M., and A. ramulnsa, W. V. Fitzgerald.'' It has, 

 however, the rounded heads of A. hrachystachya instead of the 

 more elongated ones of the two first-named species. Otherwise 

 A. cibaria, F. v. M., appears close to A. hrachystachya, and 

 was, in fact, marked by Mueller, " Forsan A. hrachystachya.^' 

 Fitzgerald's species was described from a specimen without 

 flowers. The cylindrical fruit at once distinguishes all these 

 " species " from the flat-fruited A. aneura.

 No. 37. 



This was reduced by Bentham to a synonym of A. micro- 

 jjoides, but there seems sufficient distinction to recognise a 

 variety. The plants are more slender and branching, the floral 

 leaves of the general involucre are narrower and longer, the 

 flowers and achenes a deeper colour, pappus scales and awn 

 shorter, the former more jagged. 



Angianthus strictus, var. lanigerus, n. var. (Compositae). 



Differs from the type in the outer floral leaves deijsely 

 covered with white wool, with bare minute reddish tips. The 

 main stem is well developed and woolly. 



Intermediate forms occur.
