of fruit receptacles and leaves, the 31. Diana, Ung., from the Fossil Flora of 
lladoboj, comes very close to our species. The 31. tenuinerois , Lesq., from the 
North American Tertiary Flora, also resembles it as regards the venation, but 
differs in not having its form of leaf narrowed towards the base. r J lie likewise 
similar 31. Inglejieldi, Ileer, from the Arctic Tertiary Flora is distinguished 
by its more distant and generally more acute-angled tertiary veins. 
I dedicated this species in memory of Robert Brown, the earliest 
investigator of the Flora of Australia. 
Locality and Horizon. — Dalton, near Gunning; in hard siliceous grit, 
reposing on Silurian rocks. 
Magnolia Torresii, sp. nor. 
Plate Y, Fig. 8. 
Sp. Char. — M. foliis coriaceis ovato-oblongis, integerrimis ; nervationo 
camptodroma ; nervo primario pervalido, recto, apicem versus angustato; nervis 
secundariis lirmis, subangulis 55-65° orientibus, leviter curvatis, oequalitcr 
inter se distantibus parallelisque, nervis tertiariis inconspicuis. 
Obs . — Differs distinctly from the previous species in its larger, more 
ovate leaves, stronger, slightly curved, but not flexuose secondary veins, placed 
at equal distances, and parallel to one another. As in the former species, the 
consistence of the leaf is strongly coriaceous, and the reticulation not preserved. 
As regards the leaves, Magnolia Lesley ana, Lesq., and 31. regal is, Ileer, are 
very similar to this species. Future research, aided by more complete 
materials, may perhaps disclose the nearer mutual relations of these species 
to one another. 
I named this species after the Spaniard, de Torres, one of the earliest 
[maritime] discoverers of Australia in the seventeenth century. 
Locality and Horizon . — With the preceding species.
