15. The North Island of New Zealand also contains several well- 
_known European plants, which were found here by her earlier scientific 
visitors ;—(exclusive of the host of common plants which have come 
in with colonization ;)—some of which, curiously enough, have not 
been found elsewhere in the Southern Hemisphere. Those European 
plants (several of which are cosmopolites) are of the following natural 
orders, vz :—Cruciferze, 83; Oaryophylles, 2; Malvacez, 1; Gerani- 
acess, 2; Oxalides, 1; Coriaries, 1; Rosacee, 2; Onagraris, 1; 
Halorageee, 1; Composites, 5; Solanex, 1; Chenopodiaces, 4; 
? 
Naidaceee, 3; Aroides, 4; Junces, 3; Cyperacesx, 6; Graminem, 4; 
Filices, 7; and, Lycopodiaceze, 1 ;—total species, 57, It is worthy of 
remark, that not a single species is hard-wooded, scarcely even a 
shrub, save Ooriaria ruscifolia ;—and that many of them are sea-side 
aud water plants, identical to those found in Great Britain.
