Victorian Pyrenees. It is described as a smooth little bush of heath-like habit and of erect growth, with 
leaves oblong-cuneate, mucronulate, at the margin revolute, with solitary polypetalous erect and terminal 
flowers, resembling those of Sollya, and with almost round anthers.

iv. pars ii. 152. 
Tall, hardly viscid; branchlets compressed-angular; leaves lanceolate , or ovate- or oblong-lanceolate, 
petiolate, chartaceous, flat, entire; flowers dioecious, corymbose-paniculate; sepals acuminate; stamens8-10; 
anthers slender, several times longer than the minute calyx , glabrous, acuminate; filaments finally as long 
as the sepals; capsules three-valved, winged from the summit to the base ; sides of the valves broadly 
dimidiate-ovate; wings hardly as broad as the valves, at the extremities rounded-blunt; dissepiments per¬ 
sistent with the columna; seeds very shining; stropliiole wanting. 
On barren declivities and granite rocks of Genoa Peak and elsewhere in the vicinity of the Genoa 
River; extending over Eastern Australia as far north as Moreton Bay. 
A good-sized bush, becoming on favorable spots arborescent and then attaining a height of about 20 
feet. Leaves from 2-5 inches long, |-1J inch broad, more or less acuminate, one-nerved, finely feather- 
veined, somewhat paler beneath, gradually tapering into a short petiole. Male corymbs decompound, terminal 
and axillary. Sepals 4-5, green, ovate, apiculate, only about h line long, early dropping. Filaments very 
short, capillary, glabrous. Anthers slender, yellow, about 1 A line long, linear-tetragonous. Female corymbs 
also axillary and terminal, compound, short pedunculate. Pedicels very slender, upwards thickened, much 
longer than those of the male flowers. Sepals occasionally enlarged to the length of 1| line and a longer 
while persistent. Style early secedent, setaceous-filiform, inch long, at the summit short-lobed. Valves 
of the capsule 3-5 lines long. Wings about as broad as the valves, but longer, upwards somewhat dilated, 
veined. Seeds measuring about 1 line, oblique- and turgid-lenticular, polished-smooth, black, margined by 
a crisp diaphanous white pellicle. 
This Dodoneea approaches in its characters to D. platyptera and to D. procumbens. D. lanceolata from 
Arnhem’s Land is perhaps from it not specifically different. 
Z>odonaea truncatiales, F. M. Fragm. Phytogr. Austr. ii. 143. 
Tall, hardly viscid ; branchlets compressed-angular, almost winged towards the summit ; leaves narrow - 
lanceolate, glabrous, entire or slightly denticulate-repand; flow r ers simple- or paniculate-corymbose; sepals 4, 
ovate, acute, little longer than the tetragonous-ovate at the summit bearded anthers; filaments very short; 
capsule four-valved, sometimes three-valved; valves upwards dilated, almost broader than long , towards the 
base wingless, towards the summit expanded into a truncate and very broad wing ; septa persistent with the 
columna. 
On the wooded banks of the Genoa River. In New South Wales along the rivers Towamba and 
Yowaka and on rivulets in the Blue Mountains. 
An erect shrub, attaining the height of about 12 feet, dioecious or occasionally monoecious. Leaves 
2-8 inches long, ^-1 inch broad, almost opaque, beneath slightly paler, generally tapering by degrees into 
the base and apex, strongly one-nerved, thinly feather-veined, by exsiccation somewhat revolute at the margin. 
The female corymb usually less compound than the male inflorescence. Bracts linear, channelled, solitary, 
A-1J line long, deciduous. Sepals hardly longer than 1 line, ciliolated. Fruit-pedicels J-l inch long, 
slender, upwards thickened. Valves 1J-2 lines high. Wings sometimes dimidiate-lanceolate, sometimes 
ovate-semilanceolate, 2-4 lines broad, green or reddish. Well matured seeds as yet unknoum. 
In habit and foliage not dissimilar to D. triquetra; in male flow'ers and fruit widely distinct; in 
regard to its capsules closely allied to D. platyptera (F. M. Fragment. Phytograph. Austral, i. 73) from
