Flowering specimens were obtained in December, 1911, of tlie 

 Hibbertia(No.2259) mentioned in tbese Proceedings for 1911 

 (p. 576), which show that the plant then referred to, is an erect 

 form of //. serpyJIifolia. 



Quintinia Sieheri was found towards the head of Ruby Creek, 

 just east of Mount Werong. Early Australian botanists soon 

 noticed that the seeds of this tree often germinate in the caudices 

 of Tree-ferns; the young plants thus produced gradually extend 

 to the ground, and afterwards grow into large trees beside the 

 Tree-fern( Plate Ixv.). 



An interesting species of Kunzea(No.3175) from 2-3 feet high 

 and somewhat straggling, was found flowering in December on 

 tlie Big Plain, at an altitude of about 3,800 feet, and is probably 

 a new species. The specimens collected are in the National 

 Herbarium, Sydney.
