Supplementary remarks:
"This seems to be a distinct species. We have no representatives of this form from Australian localities." Director, Botanic Gardens, Sydney. "Does not match any South African forms" Cheif Botanist, Cape Town Museum. Speciemens of this were sent along with forms of Blechnmu capense (L.) Schect?. Refering specimens from Forest Hill Road Oratia. In some respects it appears to me to approach B. minor (R.Br.) very closely. H. Carse.
