to Australasian gardens. In 1866 we have a record of the plant in 
the Sydney Botanic Gardens and Moore in his Census of Plants of 
New South Wales says it was naturalised hy 1881. Apparently it 
took longer to establish itself in Victoria, for its naturalisation was 
not recorded in that province till 1907. Ewart says “it is a highly 
ohuoxious weed, especially in gardens. It prefers slightly sour soil 
and, though it likes moisture, tides over drought hy the aid of its 
underground pares. These produce bulbils freely and since the seed 
is also abundant the plant is difficult to eradicated* 
The naturalisation of 0. Pes-capra in India now reported for the 
first time must therefore be considered late. It comes in 1913 in a 
collection made by Lady Bourne (No. 5336) in the Pulney Hills. In 
1914 Sauliere (No. 315) had it among his Madura plaids and now 
Professor Fyson (No. 33*28) sends it from the Nilgiris where he men* 
tions its altitudinal range as very restricted 7,0(10-7, 200 ft.
