The typical form of D. spinnlosa, Sm„ so far as at present known, is confined to X. S. Wales,, 
while B. collinti, K. Br.. besides Queensland, is met with in N. S. Wales and Victoria, but from 
the examinations of Queensland specimens of B. cullimi and the X. S. Wales one of B. spinnlosa. 
I find nothing to keep the two as distinct species. 
When the leaves aie small and rather broad, they are somewhat like those of B. marginata. 
but the species is readily distinguished by the large flowers, hooked style and thick capsules. —

Austr. v. 554. Honeysuckle. “ Pomera,” and “ Tchoomeroo,” Stradbroke

a considerable size, the young branches closely tomentose. Leaves scattered,, 
sometimes irregularly verticillate, oblong cuneate or lanceolate, quite entire or 
irregularly toothed, tapering into a short petiole, 3 to 4in. long in some specimens, 
twice that length in others, especially the northern ones, A to near lin. broad, 
white underneath, with numerous transverse veins and reticulations not very 
prominent ; the young shoots are also sometimes tomentose or villous with 
richly coloured fulvous almost woolly hairs persisting on the under side till the 
leaves are nearly full grown. Spikes oblong or cylindrical, 3 to 6in. long. 
Bracts tomentose at the end. Perianth usually about lin. long, silky. Style 
straightening after the perianth-lamina; have separated and usually very spreading

have remarkably long leaves, sometimes 8 to lOin. long and Jin. wide, and constitute the

constant, and 11. Brown had himself referred his specimens to B. integrifolia. — Benth.
