COLLECTED BY CAPTAIN STURT. 331 



depending on its smooth leaves, and its 'axillary nearly 

 sessile corymbi or fasciculi, which are much shorter than 

 their subtending leaves; but even in the specimen con- 

 tained in the collection presented to the British Museum 

 by Sir Thomas Mitchell, the young branches, as well as 

 the pedunculus and pedicelh, are covered with similar 

 pubescence, and in the same degree as that of J. lineare ; 

 the specimens from Dampier's Archipelago have leaves 

 equally smooth, but have the inflorescence of J. lineare; 

 and I have specimens of J. lineare in which, with the usual 

 pubescence of that species, the inflorescence is that of 

 Mitchellii. Among Sir Thos. Mitchell's collection at the 

 Museum, there is a Jasminum not noticed by Professor ess 

 Lindley, which, though very nearly related to J. lineare, 

 and possibly a variety only, may be distinguished by the 

 following character. 



Jasminum {micrcmtJmm) cinereo-pubescens, foliis ternatis ; 

 foliohs lanceato-hnearibus, pedunculis axillaribus l-3floris, 

 coroUse laciniis obtusis dimidio tubi brevioribus. 



17. GooDENiA {cydoptera) ramosissiraa pubescens, foliis 

 radicalibus serrato-incisis ; caulinis lanceolato-ellipticis obso- 

 lete serratis in petiolum atteiiuatis, pedunculis axillaribus 

 unifloris folia subsequantibus, seminibus orbiculatis mem- 

 brana angusta cinctis.
