128 BOTANY OF BALUCH-AFGHAN BOUNDARY COMMISSION, 1896. 
found in the list of plants from British Baluchistan, drawn up by 
Messrs. Lace and Hemsley in their very interesting and exhaustive 
sketch of the vegetation of that region in the Journal of the Linnean 
Society, Vol. XXVIII, pp. 313— 321. 
These species are as follows 
Tamar ix macrocarpa, 
Reaumuria StocJcsiu 
Monsonia senegalensis. 
Trachydium Kofsc/iyi, 
Ferula Assafmtida, 
Phagnalon acuminatum, 
Senecio Decaisnei, 
Statice macrorkabdos. 
Hyoscyamus muttcus, 
Mentha arvensis^ 
Rheum Rlbes, 
Gagea amblyopetata. 
We might add to the list also Rhagadiolus Hedypnois, but for 
the fact that our material of the plant so identified is insufficient for 
absolute determination. 
That so large a proportion as 28 per -cent, of the species reported 
should differ from those obtained in the Quetta district indicates 
that, In spite of the general similarity of the vegetation throughout 
Baluchistan, there are still some marked local differences. It may 
be assumed, too, that the figures given are not likely to overstate 
the proportion, for while it is true that the present list must be very 
far from complete for the area to which it refers, that given by 
Messrs. Lace and Hemsley is probably almost exhaustive, since the 
formation of the collection on which it is based extended over several 
seasons. 
And that the alteration is gradual may be gathered from the 
fact that at least four of the twelve species now enumerated as 
absent from the Quetta district were obtained by Stocks in the 
country immediately to the south-west of Quetta.
