South Australia. 
I have already quoted the South Australian localities cited by Mueller and 
Tate. 
We have it also from “ Near the MacDonell Range ” (Lieut. Dittrich, quoted 
by Mueller in “Australasian Journal of Pharmacy,” Novr., 1886). 
Western Australia. 
I have already quoted Mueller and Tate for some localities of this State. 
Mr. Pitzgerald {loc. cit.) states as follows :— 
Scattered throughout the eastern interior, chiefly north of Mount Malcolm, extending east to the 
South Australian border and west to near Shark’s Bay, but apparently does not penetrate the tropics. 
Occurring in small clumps, covering considerable tracts of country or lining the banks of dried 
watercourses. It is common in the vicinity of Mt. Malcolm, Tuckanarra, and other gold-field centres, 
growing usually in granitic areas, and among many prospectors has the reputation of denoting the 
proximity of fresh water. 
It is also from Ularing, say 50 miles south-west of Meuzies (Young), Herb. 
Melb.

This is one of the few drawings which has not been prepared from exclusively, or nearly exclusively, 
New South Wales material. I have not specimens of the typical form from New South Wales, only of the 
variety fissifolia from this State, and I trust that publication of this plate will lead to records of New 
South Wales localities for the species.
