so keep pace with the elongated style. The place of attach- 

 ment in the dorsifixed anthers varies somewhat. Thus in 

 Grotalaria the small anthers are lobed at base and the filament 

 is inserted on the back of the anther and close to its l>ase. 

 In Goodia the anther is orbicular and entire, and the inser- 

 tion is higher up, nearly in the middle of the Jback. None 

 of these anthers are versatile in the sense in which that word 

 is applied to the anthers of many liliaceous plants and 

 grasses (pi. x.).

 and near P. rotundifolia, Benth., and P. calycina, Benth., 

 but differs from both in the convex mucronate leaves, the

Thymelaeaceae. — Pimelea continua, sp. nova. (tab. 

 x.). Herba erecta ramosa appresse puberida, foliis alternis 

 linearibus, bracteis foliis similibus paucis caducis, spied

 east of Hallett) to the Department of Agriculture in January, 

 1911, by a correspondent who desired to know whether the 

 plant was poisonous. Only the upper part was received. 

 Belongs to the subsection GJioristachys, and is near P. 

 simplex and P. sericostachya, but differs from the first in the 

 head lengthening into a fruiting spike and from the latter in 

 the dense and compact character of the spike and the smaller 

 flowers. 



Myoporaceae. — Eremophila neglecta, J. M. Black. See
