PREFATORY NOTICE, 
feign PPS Lo 
Tue lapse of time since the publication of my last Botany Bulletin, 
No. XV. (January, 1898), seems to cail for some explanation. The 
_ Teason has been that all additions to the State’s Flora have either been 
~ given in the pages of the Queensland Agricultural Journal, or worked 
: into “ The Queensland Flora” as that work progressed. The necessity 
for issuing the present has been brought about by the publication, in 
Vol. XLIL. of the Hedwigia, of the fungi collected by Drs. L. Diels and 
fk. Pritzel, during their recent botanical collecting trip through Australia, 
Von P, Hennings, who determined their fungi, found a large number 
of them to be new to science, and as these were mostly obtained in 
i Queensland, it becomes my duty to publish deseriptions of them, and 
: thereby bring my publications on this Order up to date. I have also 
Added to the above some of my own determinations of fungi and other 
- Plants,
