QUEENSLAND
I have received it from the following localities:—Bulloo River (J.F. Bailey) near Thargomindah (Collector of F. M. Bailey); Maranoa district (ditto).
It is a dry-country species, and we require further observations as to its range, both in New South Wales and Queensland. As regards the former State, it has not been found east of the Darling, so far.
