Flora ([f Australia. 319 



Lehniann remarks: '" Plantae quoad genus omnino dubia ; 

 fortasse ad Angiantheas referenda," but as far as can be deter- 

 mined from the heads, bracts and immature pappus, it more 

 closely resembles ('aIorf/)JiaIus. It differs from the present 

 plant in the indumentum, shape and position of leaves, shape 

 and number of bracts, etc. 



Calocephalus SkeaUiana differs widely in external appearance 

 from all other species of Caloce/phalua, but nevertheless in the 

 involucre, bracts, partial heads, pappus, etc., comes within the 

 range of this genus, and older specimens will probably approach 

 Caloce})halus more closely in external appearance. It has been 

 named fJrinrJihunii-^ K/iappi, F. v. M., in W. Australia, but is 

 quite different to that species externally and in the heads and 

 involucre, though alike in the florets and in the presence of a 

 pappus. 



Calystegia (Convolvulus) Soldanella, L. (ConvolvulMceae). 



Three-mile Beach, National Park, Audas and St. John, Oct., 

 1909. 



This cosmopolitan plant is found on the shores of all 'the 

 temperate regions of the globe. The sole Victorian record was 

 from Wilson's Promontory, by Mueller, in May, 1853, of a 

 doubtful non-flowering specimen, placed by him as a variety 

 '' reniformis " of C. sepiiun. The plant is not recorded from 

 any other locality in Victoria, but there is no reJison to doubt its 

 being native to the present locality. It helps to bind the sand 

 on sea coasts. 



Casuarina distvla, Vent., var. p'kostkata, Maiden and Betche. 



Audas and St. John, Wilson's Promontory, Oct., 1909. 

 The variety has the branchlets finely hairy, and has not pre- 

 viously been recorded from Victoria. 



Eriochlamys Knappii, F. v. M. = Calocephali s Knappii (F.M.), 

 Ewart and W^hite. (Compositae). 



This plant differs from Eriochlamys Behrii, the only species of 

 this genus, in : — 



(1) The compound heads are very strongly developed.
