This fine species is dedicated to Andrew M'Crae, Esq., as 

 an acknowledgment for much support received from him in 

 my travels. 



SCROPHULAEINAE, 

 23. Euphrasia alsa* 



Dwarf, annual; glandulously downy; leaves sessile, In out- 

 line ovate-cuneate, laclniate or pinnatlfid ; lobes of the leaves 

 oblong or linear, blunt ; spikes very short, few-flowered ; 

 calyx tubulose-campanulate, the lobes blunt, about as long 

 as the tube ; tube of the corolla hardly exserted, of equal 

 length with the limb ; the lobes of the lower lip emarginate, 

 of the upper retuse ; anthers scantily bearded, the cells of all 

 short and equally spurred ; capsule orbicular-ovate, in front 

 densely ciHated, inclosed, much compressed, few-seeded. 



Gregarious on the highest stoney summits of the Munyang 

 Mountains— (6,000 feet). 



It differs by its annual root from all other Austrahan and 

 Tasmanian species, by almost equally spurred anthers from the 

 European, by the bearded anthers from the South American, 

 and respectively by the same characters from the New 

 Zealandian species. E. Antarctica and revoluta are nearest 

 to it related. 



24. PcBderota densifolia. 



Stems procumbent, cespitose; leaves thick, perfectly entire, 

 cymbiform-ovate, ciliolate, sessile , densely imbricated in four 

 rows; flowers bibracteate, axillary and terminal, soUtary, 

 sessile ; corolla twice as long as the calyx, glabrous, pink, 

 their tube inside unbearded ; capsule obcordate ; seeds obhque 

 ovate, convex at the back. 



On the highest rocky summits of the Munyang Mountains 



(6—6,500 feet). p -,. . . 



A most remarkable herb, variable in the number of divisions 

 of the corolla, and in their form. 



Since it does not agree in habit with the European species, 

 it may become the type of a new genus (Cymbophyllum). 



Proteaceae. 

 25. Grevillea Victorice, 



(Sect. GalothyrsusJ 



Tall ; leaves sub-coriaceous, undivided, long-lanceolate,
