Move ter anp Maipen—Ox a New Hakea from Eastern New South Wales. 227 
pubescent pedicels, more verrucular fruits and the seed-membrane decurrent only 
along one side of the nucleus. In the last-mentioned characteristic 7. verrucosa also 
differs, besides in evidently smaller fruits with two conic terminations, but the flowers 
are very similar, though the peduncles are tomentellous. Leaves of 77. rhombales (a 
North-West Australian species) longer, flowers distinctly smaller, style hardly half 
as long, fruits of less size, seed-membrane much shorter and very inequilateral, 
nucleus verrucular rough on the outer side. 
This species is dedicated to Mr. R. T. Baker, Assistant Curator of the Techno- 
I 
logical Museum, who exercises his artistic skill in the delineation of New South 
Wales indigenous plants.
