( Read before the Royal Society of Queensland, July 2Qth, 



1915.) 



The following notes relate to a few plants collected 

 during the past couple of years around Moreton Bay, and 

 which seem to be worthy of note. Except where other- 

 wise stated, the specimens have been gathered personally 

 by myself and several of them on excursions of the local 

 Field Naturalists' Club. 



MALVACEiE. 

 Hibiscus diversifolius, Jaaj. (var. genuinus, Hochr. 

 Ann. du. Conserv. et du Jardin Bot. Geneva, (1900) 

 119). 



Quite recently I have collected this species in swamps 

 at Sandgate and Bribie Island (Moreton Bay) and Mud- 

 geeraba (South Coast Railway). Flowers, yellow or 

 greenish-yellow, with a dark centre. Previously the in- 

 clusion of this plant in the Queensland flora rested on 

 doubtful specimens collected at Rockhampton by M. 

 Thozet. 



RUTACE^. 

 AsTEROLASiA WOOMBYE, Bail. Bribie Island ; a very 

 common shrub.
