Zealand, and Flora of Tasmania) figures of a vast number of New Zealand 
species, for very many of these are widely diffused over the southern hemi- 
sphere. 
Of New Zealand flowering plants, the following are more or less remarkable 
for some peculiarity of habit, habitat, locality, etc. 
1. More or less aquatic species will be found in the following genera and 
Orders : — 
Ranunculus, p. 3. 
Montia, p. 27. 
Elatine, p. 28. 
Myriophyllum, p. G6. 
Callitriehe, p. 68. 
Hydrocotyle, p. 85.

Naiadeee, p. 277. 
Scirpus, p. 299. 
Eleocharis, p. 300. 
Isolepis, p. 301. 
Cladium, p. 303. 
( Azolla , which somewhat re- 
sembles a dowering plant, 
is a Cryptogam.) 
2. Leafless plants, or plants provided with scale -like or very reduced leaves 
only, will be found in the following genera : — 
Discaria, p. 43. 
Carmichaelia, p. 48.

Lorauthaeese, p. 106. Cuscuta, p. 199. Cassytha, p. 239. 
Euphrasia, p. 219 : the English species in germination attaches itself to the roots of 
grasses, from which it derives its nourishment. Santalum, p. 247, also should be observed in a 
young state, for it belongs to a family of which some species are parasites. 
4. Plants with milky
