The specimens, on which Smith’s description was founded were sent to him by 
Banks under Solander’s MS. name Z: octandra, “which not being published we pre- 
sume to change, as the octandrous species of the genus are numerous, though this only 
was then known to the great botanists who first discovered it” (Rees Cyclop., lc). 
Banks’s specimens, which are not referred to by Bentham, are from Botany Bay.
