Abstract

The majority of the notes, offered now to the Royal
Society of Tasmania, were written more than a year ago,
being the result of various researches on Tasmanian plants
since I had the honour of submitting the third contribution; but this offering was delayed, because it was my wish to follow up some field-work, which I instituted in
Midsummer of last year, while travelling, accompanied by
Mr. S. B. Emmett and his son, from Circular Head to the
Arthur River, chiefly, with a view of making some special
comparisons between the vegetation of North-west Tasmania
and that of the opposite coast of the colony of
Victoria.
