The islands reached by some of the species (K 
., Ch., Au., 
&c.) are shown in brackets. 
To these may probably be added Magnoliaceae, Ficoideae, Convolvu- 
laceae, Solanaceae, and Chenopodiaceae, as well as parts of such families as 
Malvaceae, Tiliaceae, Orchidaceae, Liliaceae, Cyperaceae, Gramineae, &c., 
and many single genera in other families. 
From this table one may at once draw an important conclusion. If 
one mark the zones in which the different species occur, one gets the 
result:

1 Donatia Novae Zelandiae : range 480-1080 m. and Tasmania ; S. American genus. 
2 Utricalaria monanthos : range 380-1080 m. and Tasmania; probably arrived from south, 
3 Cassythapaniculata, perhaps an introduction, but cf. Guppy, Nat . in Pacific , p. 56, &c.
