Acrotriche and Monotoca, and his view has been followed here. A brief key 
of the genera of New South Wales Stypheliez is given to explain these 
changes :— ‘ 
1. Drupe with a several-celled nucleus. 
2. Corolla-lobes valyate in bud. 
3. Corolla-lobes smooth or hairy, except on the tips. 
4, Ovarium 5-celled (or less by abortion) = Styphelia. 
(Including Astroloma, Melichrus, Leucopogon, 
Lissanthe.) 
4*, Ovarium 1|-celled, with one seed 1 tea Monotoca. 
3*. Corolla-lobes with a reflexed beard on the tips... Acrotriche, 
2*, Corolla-lobes imbricate in bud fe ig ot Brachyloma. 
1*, Drupe with the endocarp separable in distinct pyrenes. 
5. Ovarium 5-celled, pyrenes 5 ... cee ar ... _Pentachondra. 
5*, Ovarium 10-celled, pyrenes 10... 7 dy: Trochocarpa. 
The following comparative table of the New South Wales genera will

* Lissanthe montana R.Br. and Leucopogon Hookeri Sond., were united by Mueller 
under the name of Styphelia montani ; but as the two plants should, in our opinion, be 
kept distinct (see Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S. W. xxiii, 13 [1898]), the name Styphelia montana 
has been restricted here to Lissanthe montana R.Br,
