to wbicli the plants were applied by the natives. The botanic 

 determination of the species being supplied to him by Baron 

 Mueller, Dr. Wm. WooUs, and myself. The beautiful small palm, 

 Bacularia Palmeriana, Bail., bears his name. 



Dr. Joseph Bancroft has collected the native plants more 

 from an economic than botanic point of view, and to him the 

 colony is indebted for the knowledge of the many valuable 

 properties our plants are now known to possess. Stri/chnos 

 Bancruftiana , Bail., is named after him. 



C. H. Hartmann collected herbarium specimens for many 

 years in the southern portions of Queensland, most of which 

 were determined by me, but of late years he sent many of 

 his specimens to Baron Mueller. He not only collected the 

 flowering plants, but was also an extensive collector of fungi, 

 lichens, and mosses. His name is borne by one of the most 

 beautiful of our orchids, Sdrcorhilm Hartmanni, F.v.M., and 

 Pohjporua Hartmanni, Cooke, a large fungus. 



Rev. J. E. Tennison-Woods, when travelling in tropical 

 Queensland, collected specimens of the fungi, lichens, &c. The 

 Italian mycologists, P. A. Saccardo and Dr. A. N. Berlese, 

 named Melojihia Woodsiana in honour of him. 



Rev. B. Scortechini collected the flora of the Logan district 

 and other parts of South Queensland. His name is given to 

 the Epacrid Brachylvma Scortecliinii, F.v.M. ; and by the Italian 

 mycologists, P. A. Saccardo and Dr. A. N. Berlese, to Actino- 

 thecium ScurtecJdnii ; since which, in ackowledgement of his 

 great service in collecting the plants of the Straits Settlements, 

 Dr. Hooker has named a genus of Euphorbiacefe, '' ScortecJtinia," 

 in his memory. 



Geo. Watkins, who resided for some years on Stradbroke 

 Island, collected much of its flora, the specimens being sent to 

 me for determination. 



T. Barclay-Millar, during the p.ist fifteen years or more, 

 has beeu in the habit of collecting and forwarding specimens of 

 the native plants of Northern Queensland, especially from the Cape 

 York Peninsula, and latterly from the Walsh River. Many of the
