Bcorr.—Macquarie Island. : 489 
In last year's Transactions Mr. Armstrong described two varieties from 
Stewart Island, one of which had hairy the other smooth leaves; and last 
summer these two varieties were brought up from Auckland Island. I did 
not notice the smooth-leaved variety on Macquarie Island. 
This is a very common plant in both the Campbell and Auckland 
Islands. It is also found in Stewart Island, and Lyall has found it on the 
west coast of the South Island of New Zealand. What is known as the 
* Kerguelen Cabbage” is an entirely different plant—the Pringlea anti- 
scorbutica.”’

9. Coprosma repens, not in flower. Found in New Zealand, Auckland 
and Campbell Islands. 
COMPOSITÆ. 
10. Pleurophyllum criniferum, in flower and fruit. This, like the Stilbo- 
carpa, occurs in large patches all over the island. It is the handsomest 
plant on the island. Its long sage-green leaves and its purple flowers make 
it particularly noticeable. It occurs in the Auckland and Campbell Islands 
and there grows much larger, becoming a much more showy plant. ; 
11. Cotula plumosa, in flower. Occurs plentifully close to the sea. It 
is very rare in New Zealand, but has been found in Otago. 
JUNCEX. 
12. Luzula crinita, in damp places. Occurs in New Zealand, and in the 
Auckland and Campbell Islands. 
13. Luzula campestris. Occurs in New Zealand. 
GRAMINE J£. 
14. Poa foliosa. The ordinary tussock of the island. It differs a good 
deal in appearance at different levels, and in swampy and dry ground. 
Occurs in New Zealand and in the Auckland and Campbell Islands. 
15. Poa annua. Found near one of the huts. Possibly introduced. 
16. Festuca duriuscula. Differs from Buchanan's figure of this plant in 
having the inner empty glume bifid at the extremity, not acute as given by 
FinicEs. 
17. Aspidium aculeatum var. vestitum. Occurs occasionally not far from 
the sea, and grows to a fair size. Common in New Zealand, and in the 
Auckland and Campbell Islands. 
18. Polypodium australe. My specimens show an extremely alpine form 
of this fern. It is a very common New Zealand fern, but is not mentioned 
in Hooker's ** Flora Antarctica ” as growing on the Auckland or Campbell 
Islands. 
19. Lomaria alpina, also common in New Zealand.
