NOTES ON SOME TASMANIAN PLANTS, 

 By Baron Feed, von Muellee, K.C.M.G., M.D., F.R.S.^. 



JVofe. — Helix Simsoniana. It is of great interest to find 

 that the nearest allies of this Helix are now existing in the 

 neighbourhood of JSelson and Auckland, New Zealand. It 

 forms a connecting link between H. Greenwoodi, Gray, and 

 H. dunnice, ibid. That its nearest allies should now be found 

 living in New Zealand is a matter of great importance to those 

 who take an interest in the laws of distribution.
