Kirk was of opinion there was some mistake, as he searched in the original locality for the plant. Also, I failed to find it there, and Murdoch recently has sent me a full collection of the Port William plants, but it is absent. I think Lyall must have confused his habitats in this case—an easy matter even where all care is taken.] Also, according to Cheeseman, found on east of Otago. Thomsoni T.
