It has occurred to me that it may be useful to record the native 



names of our indigenous plants, with an indication of the uses to 



which they are applied ; but I have found much difficulty in compiling 



such a list for several reasons. Some plants are known to the natives 



by different names, and very frequently different species of the same 



genus, or even of allied genera, bear the same name ; as, for instance, 



our native ferns, nearly 130 in number, pass under two names only, 



or perhaps it would be more correct to say that only two of them have 



any distinctive native name. Again, two different species of Crassula, 



viz., C. rubicunda and C. vaginata, are both known as " Ekubalo ;" and 



there are numerous similar cases.
