which he took to Europe. A compositae, Podolepui Lessoniy 

 Benth., is named after him. 



1830. — John Lliotsky collected N.S.Wales and Tasmanian 

 plants. His name is given to the genus TJiotzkyu, Schauer, of 

 Myrtacece. 



1831. — 8ir Thos. L. Mitchell collected specimens of the indi- 

 genous plants of the Hawkesbury and Hunter, the Liverpool Plains 

 and the Gwydyr ; these specimens were described partly by Dr. 

 Lindley and partly l)y Dr. R. Brown. 



1885. — Sir Thos. L. Mitchell, in his expedition to the Darling 

 River, was accompanied by the Colonial Botanist, Rich. Cunning- 

 ham, who it will be remembered was killed by the natives. 

 Many interesting plants were secured by the party, descriptions 

 of which by Dr. Lindley will be found in notes of the Journal of 

 the Expedition. 



1H3G. — -Sir Thos. L. Mitchell's party collected specimens 

 on the Darling, Murray, Lachlan, andMurrumbidgee rivers, and 

 at Mount William, the Glenelg River, Discovery Bay, and other 

 places. A Mr. Richardson was collector for this expedition, and 

 the specimens were described by Dr. Lindley. Many plants bear 

 Sir T. L. Mitchell's name, but the one best known to Queens- 

 landers IS probably the native pomegranate, Caj/jxais Mitchellii, 

 Lindl. 



1845. — In this year Sir Thos. L. Mitchell conducted liis 

 fourth expedition, this time into Northern Australia, and again 

 added largely to our knowledge of Australian vegetation. Several 

 botanists assisted in the identifications, and the descriptions of 

 the new species are given in notes scattered through the published 

 journal of the expedition. 



1832. — Alex. Collie, B.A., Surgeon, R.N., one of the 

 naturalists in Capt. Beechey's voyage, collected plant specimens 

 in south western Aujtralia and Swan River, and from this year 

 to about 1850 Ronald Campbell Gunn collected in Tasmania, 

 and the greater part of our knowledge of the plants of that island 

 is due to his work in collecting the material from which the 

 flora was elaborated. A genus of Ficoidea, Gunnia, F.r.M., bears 

 his name.
