Australian Plants. ll 
On the rocky summit of Mount William, 5,000 feet above 
the level of the sea. ; 
This highly ornamental plant forms a connecting link be- 
tween Phebalium and Eriostemon, and has been described by 
Dr. Lindley as a species of the former genus (under the name 
of Phebalium bilobum) in Sir T. Mitchell’s third expedition, 
vol IT., p. 178. sce 
It might be almost considered as a genus distinct of both; 
and South Australian specimens have been under these con- 
siderations distributed with the name of Hillebrandia Aus- 
tralasica. 
14. Crowea exalata. 
Much branched, upright or diffuse ; twigs indistinctly angu- 
late, wingless, puberlous; leaves alternate or fasciculate, broad- 
linear, gradually towards the basis narrower, blunt, minutely 
apiculate, with recurved margins; pedicels of sub-equal 
length with the calyx, solitary; petals rose-red. 
On the rocky tops of Mount M‘Farlane, about 5,000 feet 
above the sea; on the gravelly banks of the Mitta Mitta and 
Livingstone River towards Lake Omeo, and on the Boggy 
Creek in Gipps’ Land. 
Easily to be distinguished from Crowea saligna, by thicker 
much smaller leaves, which are not gradully narrowed at the 
top, by wingless twigs and smaller flowers. 
15. Boronia coerulescens. 
Suffruticose ; stems upright, branched, terete; leaves thick, 
sessile, oblong linear, obtuse, channelled, beneath glandulose- 
tuberculate; pedicels axillary and terminal, solitary, thick- 
ened at the apex, sub-equal in length to the leaves; flowers 
octandrous ; sepals oblong or lanceolate, of less tlan half the 
length of the bluish petals; filaments ciliate; seeds reticulate- 
venose. 
A, glabrescens: branches, leaves and pedicels smoothish, 
scabrous; flowers smaller, with acute lanceolate sepals. 
In barren places from the Mallee scrub on the Murray 
River to Spencer’s Gulf. 
B, pubescens: branches, leaves and pedicels short-pube- 
scent ; flowers larger ; sepals oblong, obtuse. 
On rocky hills in the Grampians, and in the desert towards 
Guichen Bay. 
16. Boronia veronicea. 
(Zieria veronicea Ferd. Mueller, Coll. ) 
Covered with a velvet-like indument; leaves approximate,
