From a fruiting specimen just received from Mr. C. Prentice, it is possible that the Brisbane form of 

 A. linearis may be specifically distinct from the common somewhat variable New South Wales one. In 

 flower Cunningham's fine specimens appear almost identical with soiue of Sicbcr's and others ; but tlu- 

 pod in Prentice's specimen is regularly contracted between the seeds, whilst it is quite continuoui* in th^ 

 few New South Wales specimens in which I have seen it perfect.
