[A letter was read from Baron von Mueller asking that in the Abstract mention might be made of the fact that in his paper on Mr. Bradshaw's Plants from Prince Regent River, read at last meeting, he had pointed out that the genus must be restored, and that as a sub-genus should merge in it.

The abstract of the September meeting at which M's paper on Joseph Bradshaw's plants was read was published in the Sydney morning herald, 1 October 1891, p. 6, listing the new species but without this point; it was however made in the abstract of the October meeting, Sydney morning herald, 29 October 1991, p. 6.
