1902. — In my Presidential Address before the Linnean Society of New South 

 Wales (Proc. Linn. Soc, N.S.W., XXVI, 759-772, 1901, with a map), I outlined a 

 " Botanical Survey of New South Wales." I divided the State into Botanical Counties 

 as follows, and which are defined with some detail. They bear the following names — 



Eastern Counties. — 



El. Monaro. 



E2. South Coast. 



E3. Illawarra. 



E4. Cumberland. 



E5. Blue Mountains. 



E6. Hunter Valley. 



E7. North Coast. 



E8. Upper Richmond and Clarence. 



E9. New England. 

 E10. Liverpool Range. 

 Ell. Southern Tableland. 



Central Counties. — 



CI. Wagga-Forbes-Dubbo. 

 C2. Liverpool Plains. 

 C3. Macintyre-Gwydir. 



Western Counties. — 



Wl. Murray Red Gum. 



W2. Cainozoic. 



W3. West Silurian. 



W4. Cretaceous. 



After the definitions of the above, follows a list of readily accessible papers 

 arranged under the abovenamed counties. 



The map shows the eastern counties to comprise the coastal areas and tablelands. 

 The western counties show the whole of the State west of an artificial line connecting 

 Corowa, Narrandera, Dubbo, Coonamble, and Boggabilla. They collectively form the 

 Western Plains. The central counties, principally the " Western Slopes," are roughly 

 parallel to the boundaries of the eastern and western counties. 



1906. — My Linn. Soc, N.S.W., 1901, paper concerning Botanical Counties was 

 in part amplified and brought up to date in Agric. Gaz., N.S.W., for June, 1906, p. 623, 

 under the title " Division of New South Wales into Plant Regions." The 1902 map 

 was reproduced also. 



In addition (p. 630) I submitted a map of fewer divisions which, for clearness' 

 sake, I referred to as " Maiden's Plant-Map of 1906, or Vegetation Zones Map."
