Cockayne. — Some Hitherto-unrecorded Fhtnt-h<ihituts (VI). 173 



Olearia lacunosa Hool<. f. 



South Island : Westland — Mount Greenland, in subalpine scrub ; not 

 abundant. L. V. 



Olearia lineata (T. Kirk) Cockayne sp. nov. = 0. virgata Hook. f. var. 

 lineata T. Kirk in "The Students' Flora of New Zealand," p. 276, 

 1899. 

 South Island : Westland — Near River Wanganui. W. Wilson ! 



Olearia mollis (T. Kirk) Cockayne sp. nov. = 0. ilicifolia Hook. f. var. mollis 

 T. Kirk in '• The Students' Flora of New Zealand," p. 269, 1899. 



South Island : Westland — Head of Otira Gorge, in the low forest. L. C. 



If it be right to separate 0. ilicifolia and 0. macrodonta although their 

 inflorescences and heads are virtually identical — and in so doing there is 

 the authority of Hooker, Kirk, and Cheeseman — then the variety mollis of 

 0. ilicifolia may be equally considered a valid species. The differences 

 between the two plants are sufficiently noted by Cheeseman (Manual, p. 286). 



Olearia moschata Hook. f. 



South Island : Westland — Balfour, Fox. and Karangarua Rivers, in 

 subalpine scrub. C. E. Douglas ! 



This is the " incense-plant " of Roberts {loc. cit., p. 58) and of various 

 reports on survey of Westland. 



Oreobolus pectinatus Hook. f. 



South Island : Nelson — Charleston, near sea. L. C. 



Oreobolus strictus Berggr. 



South Island : Westland — Moimt Greenland, in boggy groimd near the 

 summit. L. C. 



Ourisia glandulosa Hook. f. 



South Island: Otago — Ben Lomond, 1,500 m. altitude. W. Willcox ! 



Ourisia macrophylla Hook. ? 



South Island : Nelson — Vicinity of Reefton. L. C. 



Pennantia corymbosa Forst. 



South Island : Westland — One of the members of the low forest of low- 

 land river-beds. L. C. 



The Westland settlers must surely have some local name for this tree, 

 so conspicuous when in bloom ; but, at any rate, it is not known by its 

 Maori name, kaikomako (see Roberts, loc. cit., p. 56). 



Pimelea longifolia Banks & Sol. 



South Island : Westland — Paparoa Range, near the Blackball Mine. 

 W. Wilson ! 



This extends the recorded range a little further to the south. 



Pittosporum divaricatutn Cockayne sp. nov. ined. 



South Island : Westland — Mount Greenland, in the subalpine scrub. 

 L. C. 



This is the common South Island form, which I consider quite distinct 

 from the type which grows in various parts of the Central Botanical Pro- 

 vince. I hope to publish a description shortly.
