Pulfenaea mucroiiafd, F.v.M. 

 = P. poll folia, Cunn, var. nmcronafa. 

 This plant was described from specimens from Ovens River, 

 Vic, and differs from P. jjolifolia only in having broader leaves, 

 more villous branchlets, and less keeled bracteoles set rather lower 

 on the calyx tul>e. Bentham says, "This may possibly prove to 

 be a broad-leaved form of P. polifolia." In the light of evidence of 

 intiermediate forms, including those from BatloAv and Nungatta, 

 N.S.W., the species name, mucronata, can be suppi'essed, and all 

 the forms included under P. polifolia.
