Involucre-scales linear-lanceolate, in two 
rows of nearly equal length, slightly sca- 
rious at the margin, as long as the corollas 
Receptacle hardly convex, alveolate, des- 
titute of palesD. Achcnes of the female 
flowers* cpindrical, glabrous, not rostrate. 
Pappus of these consisting of 7-10 linear 
palca?, which are connate towards the base 
into a long tube. Pappus of tlie male 
flowers tubulous, short, jagged, producing 
1 or 2 laciniie. 
A glabrous, glaucous shrub of the desert 
interior of Southern Australia, with leafy 
branches, with alternate semiterete decnr- 
rent leaves, pointed and recurved at the 
apex, with small solitan^ sessile or short 
pedunculate yellowish flowcrheads at-ihe 
summit of the branchlets. 
This genus, neai*er approaching to Myrio- 
gyne than to Kidorella, I wished should 
bear the name of my obliging friend. Rich. 
Kippist, Esq., the librainan of the London 
Linnean Society, who, by liis indefatigable 
zeal in the cause of Botany, and by bis 
profound knowledge of Australian plants, 
highly merits this slight tribute of science. 
Sippisiia sucedifolia. 
Stuart's Creek. 
Only a small fragment occurs amongst the 
plants of the expedition. Leaves 3 to 5 
lines long, f line broad, from thb middle, 
not from the edges of the base, deciirrent. 
Scales of the involucre about 25, rather 
acute, ciliolate 1 line long. Receptacle 
IJ line broad. Corolla of the female 
flowers not much longer than the pappus, 
with a very small oval lamina. Pappus 
white, its palesc acute, fine serrulate, pro- 
bably in an advanced state less concrete. 
Peifectly ripe achenia yet to be discovered.

Ozotkamnus spicaius. (Sect. Euozothamnus.) 
A clammy shrub, with terete branches ; 
leaves linear, sessile, blunt, with revolute 
margins, beneath as well as the branchlets 
thinly ffrey-tomeutose, above glabre- 
scent ; flowerheeds in the axes of the 
upper leaves, few-flowered, ovate-cylin- 
drical, solitary, on very short peduncles, 
forming a leafy spike ; scales of the in- 
volucre in a few rows, yelloAvishj the 
exterior ones ovate and roundish ; the 
interior ones oblong, blunt ; the innermost 
lanceolate and connivent ; all nearly 
glabrous, ciliolate at the apex ; bristles of 
the pappus equally scabrous. 
Wirrawirraloo. 
Leaves crowded, 3~8lin. long, ^-1 lin. broad. 
Flowcrheads about 2| lin. long, its scales 
green towards the apex. The ripe fruit is

ITeUchrysttm podolepidlum. (Sect.Blepharolepis.) 
Perennial, woolly-tomentose ; stems herba- 
ceous, simple, ascendent, leafy towards the 
base, naked towards the apex, tenninated 
by a solitary flowerbead ; leaves spathu- 
late, or cuncfite-lanccolatc. flat, mueronu- 
late ; flowcrheads nearly globose, hemo- 
gamous, witliout bracts ; all involucre- 
scales provided with a slender glandidous 
and woolly stalk, livid-yellow, lanceolate- 
linear, acuminate, quite entire ; receptacle 
flat ; corollas slender, liardly widened 
upwards; the loiig temiiial appendages 
of the antliers and the divisions of the 
style, which are capitellate at the apex, 
exserted ; achenes papillose, with, no ros- 
trum ; bristles of the pappus Avhitc, 11-

Wirra\\’irraloo. 
The only specimen in the collections is 
fiugerlong. Leaves 1-1-^ in. long, about 
^ in. broad, long and gradually tapering 
to the base. The peduncle terminates the 
branches or stems, and is provided with 
one or two minute narrow bracts. Flower- 
heads about one inch aci'oss. Involucre 
scales 1V2 lin. long, the outer ones on a 
short stalk, the inner ones long-stipitate. 
the innermost diminutive. The stalks of 
the latter scantily wooll^q and often con- 
crete ; those of the fonnor mort; slender, 
webbed together by their intricate wool. 
Corollas very slender, i in. long, glabrous, 
of the Iciiglli of the pappus. Anthers, at 
least in the immature state, pallid. 
^ A species well marked, by having, even to 
the outer scales of the involiicre, a stipes, 
by wbicl) character it forms a link 
between Waitzia and Helichrysum, and 
approaches nearest to Helichrysum oxy- 
lepis (Fragra. Pythograph. Austral. I, 2, 
35), diffenng, however, widely in its in- 
dumenU the color and shape of its invo- 
lucre, the papillous achenes, the longer 
corollas and pappus, the less numerous 
bristles of the latter, &c. From It. scor- 
pioides, to which it bears, otherwise, affi- 
nity, it may be distinguished hy the leafless 
upper poi*tion of the stems or branches, 
by the color of the narrower stalked invo- 
lucre-scales. of which the outer ones are 
not sessile, by the fewer and longer pappus
