M. incana, foliis ternis lineari-lanceolatis utrinque ramulisque incano-pu- 
bescentibus, spicis ovalibus oblongisve. Brown MSS. 
An unpublished greenhouse species, of recent introduc- 
tion, first observed by Mr. Brown, in King George the Third’s 
Sound, on the south-west coast of New Holland. Comes 
near to Mrzarguca densa, which also has a foliage in whorls 
of three, but there the leaf is obovate and without pubes- 
cence. 
We were favoured with the specimen, for the drawing, 
by Lady Aylesford, with whom the plant flowered in the 
collection at Stanmore, early in the summer. 
We are indebted to Mr. Brown for the specific charac- 
ter, and all we know concerning the plant.
