There is a specimen in the Kew Herbarium written up 
““N.W. Coast, N. Holld. Bynoe,” in Sir W. Hooker’s hand. 
To this was added “ rather Drummond,” in pencil by Bentham, 
who, however, does not quote the locality in the Flora Austra- 
liensis. The specimen is certainly S. tenuifolia, but its na 
is entirely doubtful.
