[This paper related to the characters of a pretty heath-like 
rhamnaceous plant having -white tubular flowers, described in 
the “ Flora Australiensis ” (vol. i., pp. 443), and more recently 
by the Colonial Botanist (Botany Bulletin, No. 4). The plant 
had been found flowering during the months of August and 
September on the Mary vale Bun, in the parish of Gladfield 
Warwick, where it occurred upon the dry elevated ridges of the 
range amongst basaltic rocks, growing to a maximum height of 
three feet, being densely shrubby, and forming circular masses, 
extending from two to three feet, with occasional much longer 
offsets. The banks of the Condamine River was the only pre- 
vious habitat from which it had been recorded, and there it had 
been collected by the late C. H. Hartmann. Abstract—

adjacent hiUs, and known as Charley’s Gully. A dried specimen 
forwarded to Mr. F. M. Bailey, Colonial Botanist, was determined 
by him as being Morchella deliciosa, one of the four species of 
morells occurring in Victoria, their only, until now, recorded
