 Austral zone, althoui^h some varieties flourisli in tlie Ti'ansition and 

 others in the Lower Austral. In both of these extremes, however, it 

 will be observed that by far the i^reater number are confined to those 

 parts of the zones which lie nearest to the Upper Austral {as indi- 

 cated by the letter (.s) in the Transition list, and the letter (//) in the 

 Austrorii)arian list).
