leaflets or to a simple linear-lanceolate leaf. Flowers rather large, in short 



axillary racemes or terminal panicles, the pedicels slender. Sepals ovate. 



Anthers somewhat broad, the oonnectivum barbellate, apiculate. Capsules small, 

 with broad obovate or orbicular diverging wings of 3 or 4 lines. 



Hab.: Nerang Creek (a tree 20ft. high), H. Schneider; near the southern border, on the 

 Condamine River. 



15. D. macrozyga (pairs of leaflets long), F. v. Fragm. iv. 135, ix. 86. A 

 viscid erect shrub, subglabrous, the branchlets compressed-triquetrous. Leaves 

 pinnate with rarely some simple ones ; rhaohis dilated, with petiole 2 to Bin. 

 long. Leaflets 5 to 27, broad-linear, flat, entire, obtuse, chartaceous, 6 to 12 

 lines long, f to 1 line broad, narrowed to both apex and base. Male flowers 

 unknown. Female flowers few, in corymbose racemes, axillary. Pedicels under 

 1 line long. Bracteoles short. 8epals 4, lanceolate-ovate, almost f line long, 

 deciduous. Capsule acute and very broad, tetrapterous, valves about 2f lines 

 high, and the wings almost 4 lines broad.

16. S. physocarpa (Bladdery appearance of capsule), F. v. M. Fragm. i. 

 74, ix. 86 ; Benth. F. Amtr. i. 484. A tall shrub, the flowering-branches short, nearly 

 terete, and as well as the leaves slightly pubescent as in D. polyzyga, but much 

 less viscid. Leaves pinnate, the rhachis angular but scarcely dilated ; leaflets 

 rarely more than 10 and often only 4 to 6, obovate or oblong, obtuse or 

 mucrohate, mostly 3 to 4 lines long, entire or rarely obscurely 2 or 3-toothed, 

 flat, 1-nerved, sometimes rather thick, but not coriaceous. Racemes terminal, 

 short, loosely few-flowered. Sepals lanceolate, obtuse, nearly 2 lines long. 

 Anthers short, obtuse. Style often elongated. Capsule large, somewhat inflated, 

 often 5 or 6-celled or at times 4, the axis above |in. long ; wings not very broad, 

 rounded above and below, but much injured in our specimens. Seeds shining. 



Hab.: Norman Eiver, T. Gulliver (P. v. M., I.e.) ; Gilbert Eiver, Daintree (P. v. M., I.e.) ; and 

 Walsh Eange, R. G. Burton. 



17. D. vestita (referring to the clothing of hairs), Hook, in Mitch. Trop. 

 Amtr. 265 ; Benth. Fl. Austr. i. 484. A much-branched shrub, densely villous, 

 hirsute or pubescent, the hairs sometimes long and almost golden. Leaves 

 pinnate, the rhachis winged ; leaflets varying from few broadly obovate-cuneate 

 and 2 or 3 lines long, to above 20, narrow-oblong, and 4 or 5 

 lines long, entire or rarely 2 or 3-toothed, the margins always much 

 recurved. Pedicels usually in clusters of 8 or 4, about |in. long. Sepals 

 lanceolate, acute, attaining 3 lines. Anthers 8 to 10, linear, hirsute, spirally 

 twisted as they fade. Capsule when young hirsute with long hairs, the wings 

 broadly orbicular, when far advanced the hairs mostly disappear and the wings 

 are much narrower in proportion to the carpels. — D. paulliniafolia, A. Cunn.

Hab.: Belyando Eiver, Mitchell (very hirsute specimens, with few, small, broad leaflets, and 

 broadly winged, very hirsute, young frilits) ; Endeavour Eiver, Bawfts, A. Cunningham {sca.T:aelj 

 more than pubescent, with numerous narrow leaflets and narrow-winged, scarcely hirsute, old 

 fruits) ; Castle Creek and head of Boyd Eiver, Leichhardt (leaves and indumentum inter- 

 mediate, and on one specimen the young fruit, like Mitchell's, on one branch, and an old capsule, 

 like Cunningham's, on another branch). — Benth. 



18. D. oxyptera (wings acute), F. v. M. Fragm. i. 74 ; Benth. Fl. 

 Austr. i. 484. A shrub of several feet, the branches virgate, terete, pubescent as 

 well as the leaves and more or less viscid. Leaves pinnate, the rhachis angular 

 but scarcely dilated ; leaflets usually 5 to 11, narrow-oblong or oblong-cuneate, 

 obtuse, 2 to 4 lines or rarely |in. long, the margins recurved. Flowers small,
