C. Reynoldsii, discovered by Mr. Gosse, does not occur in Mr.
Giles's collection, and is probably very local.

Mr. Giles's collection contains also species of the genera Vigna, Tephrosia, Melaleuca, Callistemon, Haloragis, Pterigeron, Brachycome, Dampiera, Ipomea, Morgania, Enchylona, and Atriplex; as also additional species of Rulingia, Abutilon, Sida, Dodonaea, Euphorbia, Spyridium, Acacia (many), Eucalyptus, Scævola, Goodenia, Eremophila, Heliotropium, Rhagodia, Ptilotus, Hakea, and Panicum; but none in a state sufficiently advanced to admit of ascertaining their precise specific position.

A preliminary enumeration of the plants of Mr. Giles's First Expedition appeared in Caruel's Nuovo Giornale Botanico Italiano, 1873, pp. 127-129. Additional localities of many Central-Australian plants from John MacDouall Stuart's collections are recorded in the Official Report on the Melbourne Botanic Department for 1862, pp. 11-15.
