ABSTRACT OF PROCEEDINGS. XX111. 



EXHIBITS : 



1. Mr. W. S. Dun exhibited specimens of the dentary 

 plates of Neo-ceratodus obtained from a well near Went- 

 worth, New South Wales. The specimens were obtained 

 by Mr. A, MacDonald from a deptli of 60 feet, associated 

 with remains of extinct marsupials and birds. The exist- 

 ing form occurs in the Burnett River, Queensland. 



2. Mr. E. Clieel exhibited a specimen of Acacia inter- 

 texta Sieb., collected on the Oomboyne via Wingham, a 

 fortnight previously, showing buds, which should be in full 

 bloom about January next, thus corresponding with plants 

 of the same species found plentifully on the Blue Mountains 

 and at Hill Top (Main Southern Line). He pointed out 

 that a seedling exhibited at a meeting of this Society (vide 

 these Proceedings xlviii, (1914), xxii), raised from the Hill 

 Top plants and planted in the lower gardens (Botanic Gar- 

 dens) is now also in bud, and should be in full flower about 

 January next, the first time it has flowered since it was 

 planted, thus showing the same characteristics and flower- 

 ing period of the parent plant. 



3. Judge Docker exhibited several roots from Central 

 Queensland which resembled caterpillars a few inches long.
