Geijera salicifolia					The typic broadleaved form occurs only on the coast of N.SW in shady forests Yours is the form G. pendula 7 In B62.02.03, p. 108, M had placed G. pendula in synonymy with G. parviflora, which is listed from SA in B89.12.03, p. 21.

"	Schwartzii 9 Ptilotus schwartzii, absent from B89.12.03, was included in Tate (1890) with the name attributed to M, as it was in Tate (1889a), p. 82. It is evidently based upon P. Fraseri var Schwartzii, described by M in B88.06.01, p. 163, where M wrote 'these characteristics seem sufficient for raising this supposed variety to specific rank'.
Daviesia horrida					Aotus villosa could never have been found in the interior by Sturt; it may reach the Glenelg-River. 10 The species was listed in Tate (1890), p. 221, as being found in his region G, 'the volcanic area of the south-east corner of the Province or the Mount Gambier district' (p. 204). Part of the Glenelg River lies in the far south-east of SA but it is mostly in Vic. M is evidently commenting on the assertion in Bentham (1863-78), vol. 2, p. 91, that a specimen was collected by Sturt in SA.

In the 'Additions and corrections', p. 302, the error is corrected: 'For Hakea multistriata, read multilineata'. H. multilineata is in B89.12.03, p. 121. H. multistriata is listed again below.
Loranthus celastroides
Goodenia sepalosa

"		pedunculatum			I know only one Crinum from the Murray-R., namely C. flaccidum; I know from culture C. pedunculatum of the east-coast, but that occurs nowhere in SA, 13 Tate (1890), p. 258, lists C. pedunculatum as found in his region M, the plain of the lower Murray. it may be that a second species exists towards Capricorn, and that may be C. angustifolium, which is not identical with C. Asiaticum
Cyperus pygmaeus
Schoenus sphaerocephalus
Stipa Tuckeri
Botrychium ternatum
Limnanthemum reniformis					= L. exaltatum, oldest name in the genus Leaves never kidney-shaped 14 Tate (1890), p. 143, recombined RBr's Villarsia reniformis without comment. M's view of its position varied; see APNI entries (accessed 6 April 2023) for a guide to his treatments.
Myoporum montanum					M. montanum grows never in mountains; it belongs to the desert-region; hence I adopted the name M. Dampierii Cunn
Eremophila			Behriana 15 The entry in B89.12.03, p. 175, is for the orthographic variant (not the name under which he described it used by Tate) E. behrii, which is shown as found only in SA.
Thelymitra			parviflora 16 Not in B89.12.03; it is included in Tate (1890), p. 256, attributed to R. Brown. Brown (1810), p. 314, described T. pauciflora and Tate's entry may be a typesetter's error not detected in proof. Brown also described another orchid species Microtis parviflora (p. 321), but this genus is quite unlike Thelymitra. There is no entry for T. pauciflora in B89.12.03, pp. 188-9.
"			grandiflora 17 Not in B89.12.03. Tate (1890), p. 256, attributes the name to Robert Fitzgerald; for M's views on Fitzgerald's species see, for example, M to W. Thiselton-Dyer, 25 July 1885.

Hypoxis pusilla					I doubt its specific distinction
Dianella laevis					I prefer the name D. longifolia
Potamogeton				laevis 19 No publication of P. laevis has been found (APNI, accessed 6 April 2023). Perhaps a clerical error repeating the epithet of the previous entry? P. tenuicaulis and P. ochreatus are listed in Tate (1890), p. 261, but are not in Mueller's Census.	?
"				ochreatus	Probably not distinct from the common P. obtusifolius of Europe, which I identified already 1848 with the Austral plant. 20 P. obtusifolius is listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 204.
Cymodocea antarctica					Never yet found south of Tasmania 21 C. antarctica not in B89.12.03. M used the name C. zosterifolia from at least the time of publication of his first Census (B83.03.04), and it is shown from SA under that name in B89.12.03. For his rationale for the name change, see M to. J. Agardh, 1 January 1883.
Schoenus dicifer 22 S. discifer? S. discifer not in B89.12.03; it was described in Tate (1889c), p. 131.
Stipa				muelleri 23 S. muelleri not in B89.12.03; it had been described in Tate (1885), p. 70. See also R. Tate to M, 6 May 1884.
Dichelachne (Stipa) sciurea 24 In B89.12.03, p. 223, M synonymized Dichelachne under Stipa; neither this nor the next species is listed. They were listed, however, under Dichelachne in the first edition of the Census (B86.03.04, p. 133).

Eragrostis chaetophylla 25 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 227, under its earlier name E. setifolia.
Hibbertia sericea					H. densiflora is an older and far apter name; several other species are far more sericeous. 26 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 1, under H. desiflora.
Cardamine flexuosa					With 27 This? is C. parviflora L., which may be only a var. of C. hirsuta 28 C. hirsuta listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 9.
Erysimum lasiocarpum 29 E. lasiocarpum is not in B89.12.03 although M had used the name in B79.06.04, p. 34, for Blennodia lasiocarpum, citing B55.09.03, p. 100; however, it was not described there but merely cited as his MS name. He described it in B62.03.03, p. 40, where he cited as a synonym his E. blennoides in B53.04.01, p. 367. M split Blennodia species, some listed under Sisymbrium, others under Erysimum. In B89.12.03, p. 9; he lists for SA his original 1853 name.
Sisymbrium procumbens					Did I ever receive this plant? 30 Not in B89.12.03; described in Tate (1885), p. 67; a specimen (MEL 767) was sent to M with R. Tate to M, 11 September 1883.
Cheiranthera volubilis					I believe var of C. linearis 31 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 12, under C. linearis.
Eriostemon brachyphyllum 32 Not in B89.12.03; there is a brief description in Tate (1890), p. 24, but in the systematic list, p. 209, it is given as E. brachyphyllus, attributed to M. E. microphyllus is listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 19; in his description (B55.09.03, p. 100), M states that the species is found on the 'low coast ranges of Spencer's and St. Vincent's Gulf', compatible with the distribution given for E. brachyphyllus given by Tate. APNI (accessed 7 April 2023) gives both E. brachyphyllus and E. microphyllus as synonyms of Leionema microphyllum.
Stellaria glauca					Oldest name S. palustris 33 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 46, under S. palustris.
Spergularia marina					var of S. rubra. 34 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 46, under S. rubra.
Atriplex holocarpum					var. of A. spongiosum 35 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 49, under A. spongiosum.
Dysphania simulans 36 Not in B89.12.03. The species had been described in Tate (1886), p. 71, under the joint authority of M and Tate. The description states that 'this plant simulates in a remarkable manner D. plantaginella'; B89.12.03, p. 50, includes D. plantaginella for SA.
Kochia				pentatropis 37 Not in B89.12.03. The species had been described in Tate (1885), p. 67; B89.12.03, p. 51, includes the synonym K. triptera for SA.
"				aphylla 38 Not in B89.12.03, although M had listed it in B54.10.01, p. 15.
Bassia				Erichoton 39 Bassia eriochiton?	? = B. sclerolaenoides 40 In B89.12.03, p. 51, citing the recombination made in M's earlier Census, B83.03.04.
Ptilotus				Schwartzii 41 Tate (1889a), p.82. had raised to specific rank the plant M had listed as a variety of P. fraseri (B88.06.01, p. 263), but SA is not recorded as a location for that species in B89.12.03.
Gomphrena				Browni 42 G. brownii?	= G. lanata RBr oldest name 43 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 47, under G. lanata.
Gastrolobium				elachistum 44 Not in B89.12.03, although M had described it in B75.06.02, p. 67.
Pultenaea				prostrata	= P. polyota I never saw the plant prostrate 45 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 64, under P. polyota.
"				graveolens 46 Described in Tate (1885), p.68, but not listed in B89.12.03.
Bossiaea Battii					= Templetonia Battii 47 M has written Templetonia Battii, Eucla. at the top of the page. M described it in B87.02.01, from a specimen collected near Eucla. Tate (1890), p. 65, made without explanation a new combination, creating Bossiaea batii, giving Tate as the authority in the species list, p. 222. T. battii is listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 65.
Lotus var 48 var in M's hand. Behrianus S.A. not in Census					L. austr. var. 49 Tate (1890) p. 69, lists both L. australis and a variety Behrianus, but does not include the variety in the species list, p. 224. Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 66 under L. australis.
Hakea multistriata					= H. multilineata 50 H. multistriata is given in Tate (1890), p. 84, but not in the systematic list, p. 228. In the 'Additions and corrections', p. 302, the error is corrected: 'For Hakea multistriata, read multilineata.' H. multilineata is in B89.12.03, p. 121.
Trianthema humillima					An unfortunate mixture of two plants, must be obliterated 51 J. Black (1952), p. 531, in a list of changes required for parts I and II of his Flora, wrote 'Delete Trianthema humillima, F. v. M. Mr. J. H. Willis, of the Melbourne Herbarium, informs me that further investigation of specimens from Maitland, Yorke Peninsula, prove that this is not a flowering plant, but a small moss, Gigaspermum repens (Hook.) Lindb. Mueller mistook the columella of the spore-case (sporocarp, sporangium) for the erect free-central placenta of Trianthema and the numerous spores for seeds'. See also M to O. Tepper, 30 June 1886 (in this edition as 86-06-30a), and M to R. Tate, 15 October 1889, in which he requested that this false 'species' should be omitted.
Eucalyptus cneorifolia 52 In his Eucalyptographia, third Decade (B79.13.11) under E. obliqua, M discussed De Candolle's E. cneorifolia, among other things pointing out that it has been 'confused with one of low arid country in Kangaroo-Island, which belongs to E. oleosa'. Tate (1890), p. 232, lists the species as from Kangaroo Island and Port Lincoln district. E cneorifolia is not included in B89.12.03 but E. oleosa is listed for SA, p. 99.
Cryptandra scabrida 53 Not in B89.12.03; it was described in Tate (1889c), p. 129.
Myriophyllum intermedium					DC. According to Clarke our M. variifol is to be reduced to the Asiatic species of DC. I have not yet verified this.
Wedelia platyglossa
Minuria				integerrima	Doubts about distinction 54 M has bracketed the two Minura entries. Neither species is listed in B89.12.03 but in B76.04.03, p.56, M included both species under M. candollei, the name which is listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 131.
"				denticulata
Senecio hypoleucus					certainly a variety of S. odoratus. 55 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 142, under S. odoratus.
Cassinia punctulata 56 Not in B89.12.03; the species was described under the joint authority of M and Tate in Tate (1890) (see M to R. Tate, 7 October 1888).					We have similar aberrations in Polygonum Spiraea &c 57 It is not clear to what aberrations M refers. It is also unclear from the layout of the MS whether this comment applies to the entries for Senecio or Cassinia or both (both Asteraceae); Polygonum and Spiraea are Polygonaceae.
Candollea graminifolia					= C. serrulata Labill 58 Listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 144, under C. serrulata.
Heliotropium tenuifolium					of doubtful specific value 59 Tate (1890), p. 140, places this species near H. filaginoides, which is listed for SA in B89.12.03, p. 176, along with all other Heliotropium spp included in Tate (1890), p. 247.
