FIELD NATURALISTS' EXCURSION, 



Moggill Creek. Taylor's Range is a parallel spur from the Main 

 (D'Aguilar's) Range, and forms the watershed between the two 

 reservoirs, Gold Creek and Enoggera. Our camp was made on 

 Moggill Creek in the loop between the former spur and the Main 

 Range, which trends south-east. We are indebted to Mr. F. M. 

 Bailey for the following list, with notes, of plants found in flower 

 and fruit : —
