 notes " Au interesting plant, very closely allied to S. spinescens E. Br. ! 

 from wliich, however, it seems truly distinot Ly its woolly leaf-axils, sessile 

 or sub-sessile flowers, foliar bractlets and developed calyx-tube. It is ouly extra- 

 Australian representative of the small section to whicli it belongs." Hejisley 

 mentions, " We have uot verified the genus of tliis liy dissecting the flowers ; 

 but assuming it to be con-ectly referred here, it is a very distinct and interes- 

 ting addition to the genus, especially in geographical range ajiart from the two 

 widely sjjread siiecies." I have dissected the flowers of my specimen and have 

 ascertaiued that it is truly a siiecies belonging to tlie genus Sccevola, as shown 

 in the accompanying sketches.
