FLORA OF TASMANIA. 
[European Plants 
in any truly tropical climate, and a few only enter the temperate plains of north-western India. All 
of them are temperate plants in Australia, and several of them subalpine or alpine ; few inhabit 
south-west Australia, and as a whole they are characteristic of the coolest parts of south-east 
Australia and Tasmania, the latter island alone possessing 28 out of the 37. New Zealand possesses 
15 of them, and the Antarctic regions 13; but few are South African. 
It is a singular fact that some of the best-marked of these plants do not inhabit any part of 
India, except the extreme north-western Himalaya, and others occur nowhere in the old world 
between northern Europe or Asia and Australia; one, Alchemilla vulgaris, though not Himalayan, 
is found on the Nilgiri mountains and those of Ceylon. 
Neither New Zealand, temperate South America, nor South Africa, present so large an assem- 
blage of well-marked European species, but these countries and the Antarctic islands contain several 
that are not found in Australia; and since we must look to one general cause for this southern 
migration of northern forms into all the south temperate lands, I shall add a list of all other such 
genera and species as are known to me.
