botanists know as domatia. I do not know whether attention has been drawn to 
them in this species since Sir J. E. Smith’s time. An explanation of domatia will 
be found at page 83, Part XXV of this work, under Fysoxylon Frasercmum. 
Vernacular Name. —The late Mr. Alfred Cadell, writing from Coramba, 
called it “Bog Onion.” lie spelled it “ Boggunnyan,” and thought it was an 
aboriginal word. 
At Acacia Creek, Macphcrson Range, it is known as “ Rosewood ” or 
“ Bastard Rosewood.” 
The late Sir 'William Macarthur stated that it was known as “ Dogwood ” 
and “ Bloodwood.” 
Called “Rosewood” or “Scrub Mahogany” in southern Queensland. 
Aboriginal Name. —It was known as “ Wallaon ” by the aborigines of the 
lllawarra, according to the late Sir William Macarthur. 
Synonym. — TricluUa glandulosa, Sm., in Rees’ Cycl., xxxvi (1819). 
This is the earliest printed description of the plant, which was, as already 
stated, put into the genus Synoum by A. de Jussieu. Smith’s account of the plant 
is of special interest to Australians, and as it is not generally known in Australia I 
reproduce it. 
T. glandulosa. —Glandular-veined Trichilia. Leaves pinnate; leaflets five or seven, elliptic- 
lanceolate, bluntly pointed, with axillary hairs on their veins beneath. Petals four. Nectary undivided. 
Stigma depressed. Native of New South Wales, near Port Jackson. A specimen from thence was 
communicated to us by Sir Joseph Banks, under the name of T. octandra of Solander, which not being 
published, we presume to change, as the octandrous species of this genus are numerous, though this only 
was then known to the great botanists who first discovered it. The leaves agree nearly with T. heterophylla 
in size and shape, but are all pinnate, and remarkable for axillary glands, bearing tufts of hairs along the 
midrib of each le ijlet beneath, as in the Lanrustinus, of which we perceive no indications in any other 
species, except, perhaps, the first (Z T . hirta). Clusters axillary, solitary, stalked, an inch or two in length, 
simple, of few Jlovjers. Calyx four-cleft, minutely fringed. Petals four. Nectary undivided. Anthers 
eight, sessile. Stigma capitate, broad. Capsule triangular, depressed, with three deflexed lobes. Seeds 
in a red, pulpy, elastic tunic. 
Mr. James Britten* in his fine work lias reprinted Solander’s MS. description 
of T. octcuidrci, which is given herewith. At t. 37 lie has reproduced Nodder’s 
drawing (dated 1777) of Synoum (jlandulosnm, which is, of course, the same as 
T. octandra.
