Bentham (1. c. 563) has a var. minor based upon speci- mens from Kalgan River collected by Oldfield. Tliese spe- cimens I have seen at Kew and some of them represent a distinct species which ditfers from S. Iiumifusus in several respects (see below). A single specimen of tlie same plant, collected by Oldfield at Murray River, is the type of Gnaphalodes filifolium Benth. (F"!. Austr. 111, 1806, p. 57(S), which is no Gnaphalodes. In Kew Herb. 1 have examined.
