 Hab. Summit of Mount Arthur, Van Dieman's Land, Mr. 



GuTiu (fit 139). 



A most distinct species of a highly curious and beautiful 

 Genus, found by no one that I am aware of, except my valued 

 correspondent above mentioned. The leaves are not unhke 

 those of some of our European Droserce, but the large solitary 

 flower will at once distinguish it from every other species.
