100 Descriptive Characters of 
On the low coast ranges of Spencer’s and St. Vincent’s 
Gulf, but only rare. 
Of unquestionable alliance with E. rotundifolius (AIL. 
Cunn. in enum. pl. Hueg. p. 15.) 
7. Boronia algida. 
Fruticose, much branched; branchlets spreading or diva- 
ricate, velutinous, somewhat compressed; leaves on very short 
petioles, with two pairs of leaflets and a terminal one; these 
small, coriaceous, glabrous, obcordate or cuneate-ovate, with 
entire hardly recurved margins; flowers solitary twin or 
rarely several together without a common peduncle; pedicels 
on the base bracteolate, of nearly equal length with the ovate- 
lanceolate acuminate glabrous sepals; petals much longer 
than the glabrous filaments; style smooth, very short; stigma 
depressed-capitate. 
On the highest stony declivities of our Alps; for instance 
on Mount Hotham, Mount La Trobe, and Mount Koskiusko.

Silique lanceolate, by its convex one-nerved valves almost 
tetragonal. 
8. Blennodia alpestris. 
Perennial, dwarf; stems erect, nearly naked, thinly pubes- 
cent, rarely branched ; leaves lanceolate or ovate, toothed or 
nearly entire, gradually tapering into the petiole; flowers 
white, corymbose; style short; pedicels divaricate, of the 
length of the silique; valves distinctly one-nerved; seeds 
disposed in two rows, brown, minutely foveolate. 
In subalpine grassy places on the sources of the Murray 
and Snowy River. 
Erysimum brevipes, curvipes and blennodes (B. lasiocarpa 
msc.) are congeners of this plant, but as the cotyledons are 
at times slightly bent inward, I am uncertain whether the 
genus ought not to be united with Diplotaxtis or Moricandia.
