base and not quite so numerous.

Waitzia podolepis. Steetzin Lehm. Pl. Preiss i., 450 ; Dirk Hartog Island and Peron 
Peninsula, Gaudichaud; Gascoyne River, Polak. Stems sometimes only with one 
flowerhead. Bracts margined by a pellucid membrane, ciliated ; outer bracts pale 
yellowish ; inner bracts with a lanceolar bright-yellow lamina of about t-inch 
length. Receptacle elongated-conical, short — and glandular — hairy, ^ — A-inch 
high ! Flowers at the pointed summit of the receptacle sterile. Pappus bristles 
yellowish, connate at the pale base. This plant represents evidently the genuine 
species, illustrated by Gaudichaud, though neither he nor any subsequent writer 
on this rare and pretty everlasting alludes to the remarkable elongation of the 
receptacle, which I find in all the specimens transmitted on this occasion. The 
plant named by Kunth and referred to by Sonder, belongs probably to another 
species.
