We have to add another species to. this..encumbered: 
genus; at least we are unable to reduce the present to any 
recorded plant that we can trace. It approaches near to 
-  Tromaza congesta of Mr. Brown (prodr. 485), which we 
take to be ConvotvuLus multiflorus of the Banksian Herba-

short dense pile like that of velvet; not as here, somewhat 
roughened by a thin appressed pubescence ; nor is that a 
shrubby species, none of which indeed came within the ob- 
servation of Mr. Brown in the parts of New Holland he 
visited.
