H. heterophylla, Brongn., var. glaucifolia, Schindl. 

 Marree (Hergott) ; Hawker. 



Myriophyllum verrucosum, Lindl. Swampy ground in 

 Monbulla scrub (Dist. T; H. W. Andrew). 



Umbelliferae. 



*Bupleurum semicompositum , L. Common on the plain 

 at Tailem Bend. 



Epacridaceae. 



Leucopogon virgatus, R. Br. Monbulla scrub, S.E. (H. 

 W. Andrew). 



Astroloma humifusum, R. Br. "Native Cranberry," 

 Mount Patawurta, near Moolooloo (Dist. S; E. H. Ising). 

 This is much further north than any previous record of the 

 species, but it is a mountainous district. 



Asclepiadaceae. 

 *Gomphocarpus fruticosns, R. Br. Near Rendelsham, 

 S.E. (H. W. Andrew). The specimens differ from those 

 found near Adelaide in the almost oblong, apiculate follicle 

 and the shorter, more erect segments of the corona, like those 

 of G. physocarpus, E. Mey. They agree closely with a form 

 described by N. E. Brown in the Flora Capensis, where he 

 says, "Specimens with ovoid or ellipsoid, shortly and acutely 

 pointed follicles are probably of hybrid origin between this 

 species (G. fraticosus) and G. physocarpus." 



Labiatae. 



Westringia Dampieri, R. Br. Lameroo and Pinnaroo. 

 In some specimens all the lower leaves are in 4's, the upper 

 ones in 3's or 4's; in others, quite similar in appearance, 

 all, or nearly all, the leaves are in 3's; leaves 7-15 mm. long; 

 flowers light purple. There seems no doubt that W. 

 Dampieri and TF. rigida, R. Br., should be treated as one 

 species; they cannot be distinguished by the leaves in whorls 

 of 3 or 4. The form with very short, spreading, rigid leaves 

 (3-5 mm. long), also occurs at Lameroo and Pinnaroo, and 

 is found in many parts of the State from Renmark to Ooldea, 

 and at least as far north as Moolooloo. This might be 

 known as var. rigida, as it is evidently the form indicated 

 in Brown's description. 



SOLANACEAE.
