winch alternate with the loamy and grassed flats between the 

 head of the Bight and Colona, near Fowler's Bay. I first saw 

 it in flower on January 27, 1879, its large pale blue corolla 

 being in strong contrast with the yellowish green of its foliage ; 

 no fruits were then noticed. 



EitEMOPiiiLA. crassifolia, F. 31. This is another plant 

 peculiar to South Australia, hitherto known from Mount 

 Greenly, Dombey and Venus Bays, Eyre's Peninsula. The 

 Eowler's Bay specimens represent a small leaved variety. 



Thysanotus Baueri, JR. Br., previously known from the 

 Adelaide district. (E. Tate.) 



Baron F. von Mueller reports the following plants collected 

 by Mrs. Eichards at Fowler's Bay and vicinity : — Sisymbrium 

 trisectnm, Oapsella cocJilearina, Oeoooccus piisillus, Pimelea 

 serpyUifolia , Pomax nmbellata, Aster ealcareus, A. onagniflorns, 

 JEchinospermum concavum, Hypoxis glabella, Arthropodium minus, 

 Poa lepida, and P. nodosa. 



" Among a few plants collected by Mr. Tietkins, at Pedinga, 

 in the same district, is Limosella Curdieana, F. M. I am not 

 sure whether it has been noted as S. Australian. At all events 

 we did not get it from a place so far west. Also Kochia 

 jlmbriolctia, Lavatera, Helichrysum Laivrencella, JErodiopJiylhim, 

 and Bulbine semibarbata." (F. v. M.) 



The following places quoted under South Australia in the 

 Flora Aiistraliensis should be transferred to Victoria : — 

 Skipton, Forest Creek, Buffalo Eange, Plenty Creek, Fifteen- 

 Mile Creek, Loddon Elver, and Mount Disappointment. 



List or Plants collected by Mr. Chandler at Barrow's and 

 Tennant's Creeks. 



A collection of about 90 species of flowering plants, collected 

 by Mr. Chandler while acting as Telegraph Master at the above- 

 named stations, has been submitted to Baron von Mueller, 

 whose determinations here follow. The collection was not 

 made in the interest of botanical science, and in consequence 

 is for a large part not in a good state for specific determination. 

 However, it is of value, as coming from a district which was 

 hitherto unknown botanically, and enables me to enlarge the 

 geographical range of several species. Barrow's Creek is 

 situated within the tropics, lat. 21° 30', and Tennent's Creek is 

 147 miles further north. 



Of the 49 determined species, 22 are not catalogued for 

 Tropical South Australia by Dr. Schomburgk in his " Flora of
