Thus 60 species and lo genera have to be added to those 

 recorded before as Victorian, bringing the total of the number 

 of genera up to 556 and that of the species up to 1898. A 

 few others, of which the characteristics have as yet not well 

 been studied, were laid aside for subsequent critical examina- 

 tion. It may however be assumed that in course of time, 

 when the remotest and the most impervious regions of Victoria 

 shall also have become botanically traversed, our flora will 

 offer us yet fully another hundred of species, several genera, 

 and perhaps also some additional orders of plants for phyto- 

 graphic records. The present access to the list v/e owe to 

 field-work of Messrs. W. Baeuerlen, St. Eloy D'Alton, C, 

 French, T. Jephcott and C. Walter. Future enrichments of 

 our lists of indigenous plants may mainly be expected : 



I, From near the junction of the River Darling with the 

 Murray, as doubtless many more of the plants of the Darling- 

 region follow that large water-course to within our territory, 

 than we are yet aware of; — 2, from the numerous rocky hills and 

 ranges of the Hume-district, where likely some more of the plants 

 of the Blue Mountains will yet be noticed to re-appear; — 3, from 

 the most eastern part of Gippsland, including the elevated 

 Waratah-region, the whole only quite recently opened up for 

 itinerations and settlement. Indeed Mr. Baeuerlen, who, under 

 some slight support from the Phytologic Department of Mel- 

 bourne, went over extensive grounds not remote from the
