A comparison of the flora of Viti with that of New Holland shows that, with the 
exception of Rhamnus (?) Vittensis, Homalium Visiense, Tacca maculata, and Marlea Vitiensis, 
the exact limits as species and geographical range of which are as yet hardly traced out, 
the two floras have only such species in common as enjoy a wide distribution either in 
the Old or the New World, as weeds, freshwater or seaside plants; and that the Vitian 
Phanerogamous vegetation does not embrace a single species which may be considered of 
genuine New Holland type. Moreover, eight out of the ten indigenous Phanerogams 
common to Viti and New Zealand, are also found in New Holland.
