plant which possibly should be placed under S. multiflora. The 
specimen consists only of leaves, fruits and seeds which resemble 
those of S. multiflora. Taking these characters into consideration 
as well as its position near the coast it seems possible that it may 
have been introduced into Australia and may not be a native plant, 
especially as it shows no particular aaa to S. psilosperma, 
. Muell., the endemic Queensland species 
There are also two {area consisting of leaves only, collected 
by Nieuwenhuis in Central Borneo whieh may be found to belong 
to S. multiflora or some closely allied species.
