A very remarkable little plant, differing from any other New Zealand species in 
the perfectly entire leaves. I have only seen very imperfect specimens, and the 
description given above is mainly taken from that originally drawn up by Mr. Petrie. 
10. E. Cheesemanii Weftst. in Osterr. Bot. Zeit. (1900) 381, £. 1-5.— 
A slender annual herb 14-24in. high, much branched from the base ; 
branches spreading or ascending, minutely pubescent. Leaves small, 
sessile, shorter than the internodes, }4in. long, ovate or obovate-cuneate, 
obtuse, more or less clothed with short crisp glandular pubescence, margins 
with 2-4 obtuse teeth on each side. Flowers axillary towards the tips of 
the branches, rather remote, large for the size of the plant, $-din. long; 
peduncles long, slender, }-3in. long. Calyx campanulate, shortly 4-lobed ; 
lobes obtuse, sparsely glandular-pubescent. Corolla broadly funnel- 
shaped ; tube much longer than the calyx ; upper lip short, 2-lobed; lower 
lip 3-lobed; lobes obtuse. Ovary pubescent, with 2 superposed ovules 
in each cell. Capsule obovate, compressed, slightly longer than the calyx. «

This has much of the appearance of HL. zealandica, but can be distinguished by the 
longer peduncles, fruiting-calyx not conspicuously enlarged, longer and narrower corolla, 
and by the ovary having only 2 ovules in each cell. 
ll. E. Dyeri Wetist. Monog. Ewphr. (1896) 267, f. 6, 7.—A minute delicate 
annual herb $-l}in. high, branched from the base ; branches weak, spread- 
ing, not rooting. Leaves in opposite pairs, #,-4 in. long, broadly obovate 
in outline or broader than long, deeply 5-lobed or more rarely 3-lobed ; 
lobes flat, erect, acute, minutely setulose on the margins. Flowers axillary, 
solitary, gin. long; peduncles usually short but sometimes equalling the 
leaves. Calyx campanulate, 4-lobed half-way down; lobes flat, acute, 
minutely setulose. Corolla-tube longer than the calyx, sometimes 2 as 
long again, curved below, limb with the upper lip short, broad, concave, 
shortly 2-lobed; lower lip 3-lobed. Anthers cohering. Ovary pubes- 
cent; ovules 2 in each cell, pendulous. Capsule obovate-oblong, com- 
pressed, shorter than the calyx.—Cheesem. Man. N.Z. Fl. (1906) 556.

12. E. umbellata Petrie in Trans. N.Z. Inst. xliii (1911) 256.—A small 
much-branched perfectly glabrous creeping and rooting annual herb, often 
forming patches of some size, upper branches short, suberect, sparingly 
leafy. Leaves in distant opposite pairs, very small, 2,-in. long, sessile, 
oblong- cuneate, cut about 2-way down into 5 (or rarely 7) linear- 
subulate lobes. Flowers solitary in the axils of the upper leaves or very
