 latifolia), of Victoria and New South Wales. It is dis- 

 tinguished from the eastern species by leaves shorter and 

 5-nerved, a shorter perianth-tube with whitish tomentum and 

 the lower half bearded internally (instead of a reddish 

 tomentum and the upper half of the tube bearded intern- 

 ally). It has also a much shorter pistil.
