it attains a fair size ; and on several of the headlands between 

 Whakaipo and Taupo Township. 



Lake Wailaremoana. — In several localities on the cliffs 

 fringing the lake ; Colenso (1841), H. Hill, C. B. Turner. 



XXXIII. Umbellifer.e. 

 Eryngium vesiculosum. 



West Wanganui Inlet ; B. I. Kingsley. The only station yet 

 recorded for the west coast of the South Island. 



Angelica geniculata, 



I am indebted to Mr. J. H. Macmahon for specimens of this, 

 collected on Motuaro Island, Queen Charlotte Sound. This is 

 doubtless the locality where it was originally discovered by 

 Forster, although he does not specifically mention where he 

 collected his specimens. 



XXXV. COBNACE.E. 



Griselinia littoralis. 



Summit of Mount London, between the Southern Wairoa and 

 the Firth of the Thames ; E. Bhilli/ps Turner. 



XXXVIII. Composite. 

 Brachycome odorata. 



Mr. Guthrie Smith has sent me a specimen of this collected 

 on the Tutira Run, near the head-waters of the Mohaka River, 

 Hawke's Bay. 



Olearia haastii. 



Head of the Dart River, Otago ; H. J. Matthews. 



Olearia coriacea, 



I have received a specimen of this collected on Mount Fyffe 

 by Mr. H. J. Matthews. It has rather thinner leaves than 

 Kirk's type, but does not otherwise differ. Mr. Matthews states 

 that plants of 0. forsteri and 0. cymbifolia were growing in the 

 same locality, and suggests that it may be a hybrid between 

 these two species. When flowering specimens are obtained it 

 will be interesting to note whether these show any tendency 

 towards the reduction in the number of florets which is such a 

 singular characteristic of 0. forsteri. 



Olearia cymbifolia. 



In the Manual I have followed Sir J. D. Hooker in treating 

 this as a variety of 0. nmnmularifolia. Further study, however,
