NOTES ON ACACIA. 101 



10. "Report (s) on the Geology of the Kimberley district" 

 by Edward T. Hardman, Government Geologist, Perth, 

 printed by order of the Legislative Council ; 1884, pp. 22, 

 16 plates and a map ; 1885, pp. 38, 26 plates and a map, 

 contain no botany, but the admirable lithographic views 

 are most helpful to the botanist. 



11. King, H. S. (1885). Mr. F. S. Brockman, Surveyor- 

 General of Western Australia, informs me that " Mr. King 

 conducted a triangulation and feature survey from the 

 North West bend of the Lyons River northward to the 

 Ashburton, and North-westward to the Fortescue Rivers, 

 during the middle six months of the year 1885. This survey 

 covered the country shown by flat blue wash on map at- 

 tached. (Not reproduced, but filed in the National Her- 

 barium, Sydney). 



"This would be the occasion on which the plants referred 

 to by the Government Botanist, Sydney, were collected, 

 these plants though (I understand from Mr. King) having 

 been forwarded for classification to the late Baron von 

 Mueller." 



They were described in a paper entitled "Plants collected 

 in Oapricornic Western Australia, by H. S. King Esq., and 

 recorded by Baron von Mueller " etc. (Proc. Roy. Soc. 

 Vict., xxm, 49 - 57 (1886). 



12. Mueller. "Descriptions of two hitherto unrecorded 

 West Australian plants." Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., xiii, 

 162 (1888). Although it takes cognizance of some King's 

 Sound plants, there are no Acacia records from the Nor- 

 West. 



13. Mueller. In Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W.,xm, 1256 (1888), 

 Mr. J. J. Fletcher communicated to the Society a list of 

 plants collected by Mr. W. W. Froggatt (employed by Hon. 

 W. Macleay, m.l.c.) at King's Sound. The determinations 

 were by Mueller.
