in each head of var. tubulipappum number over 100. (Plate 



ii.) 



Senecio odoratus, Hornem., var. nova obtusifolius. Differt 

 a forma typica foliis obovatis glaucis crassiusculis flaccidis 

 confertis, auriculis parvis parce dentatis, panicula 

 densiore. 



Along the coast at Port Elliot. This low, leafy shrub 

 seems to be a maritime form of S. odoratus. Although it has 

 a very distinct aspect, I can see no difference in the flower- 

 heads which would justify raising it to the rank of a species. 

 (Plate iii. ; 1, nowerhead ; 2, leaf of var. obtusifolius ; 3, 

 leaf of typical form.) 



Stylidiace^e. — Leeuwenhoekia Sonderi, F. v. M. Tin- 

 tinarra, in very poor soil among the scrub. Hitherto only 

 recorded for Victoria. Distinguished from L. dubia, Sond., 

 by the labellum with dark crimson hood, shorter corolla 

 (2 mm. as against 4 mm.), and calyx-lobes glabrous, instead 

 of glandular-hairy. 



Epacridace^e. — Leucopogon hirtellus, F. v. M., var. nova 

 glabrifolius. Eyre Peninsula (S. A. White), exact locality 

 not given. Differs from the type, which is only recorded from 

 Victor Harbour, in its glabrous leaves, glossy-green on the 

 upper side. In my specimen they are shorter than in the 

 typical form (4-5 mm. as against 7-8 mm.). The Museum of 

 Economic Botany contains specimens of var. glabrifolius from 

 Kangaroo Island. 



Plumbaginace^e. — *Statice psiloclada, Boiss. Well es- 

 tablished in places on Lefevre Peninsula (F. S. Salisbury). 

 — An ornamental plant from the Mediterranean region. 



Boraginace^e. — *Anchusa capensis, Thunb. Robe (C. 

 D. Black). A garden escape. — South Africa. 



Labiate. — *Calamintha Nepeta, Savi. ("Lesser Cala- 

 mint"). Roadsides near Mitcham. — Europe. * Salvia hor- 

 minoides, Pourr. This species may be very well separated 

 from *S. Verbeneca, L. ("Wild Sage"), as is done by many 

 botanists. It is distinguished by corolla only slightly exceed- 

 ing the calyx and leaves less deeply cut. Both species are 

 common here. — Southern Europe. 



Chenopodiace^e. — *Chenopodium ambrosioides, L. 

 ("Mexican Tea"). Port Lincoln (H. H. D. Griffith).— 

 Southern Europe, America. 



TllecebracEjE. — Scleranthus minusculus, F. v. M. 

 Murray Bridge (H. H. D. Griffith). — Hitherto only recorded 

 for Victoria.
