The south-west of Tasmania has many attractions to the botanist, the principal of which are, firstly, that the district has not been examined botanically beyond a few flying visits to a few places ; secondly, that there are many plants growing in this district that are seldom or never found elsewhere. It is only my intention to refer to plants of unusual interest, whether of distribution or other detail, and in doing so I shall deal with them in the order they occur in Bentham's Flora Australiensis.
