Excerpt from The Useful Native Plants of Australia, (Including Tasmania)

But as the work proceeded new specimens Continued to arrive, and as it was found that the catalogue would, for that reason alone, never be complete, he decided to extend it, so as to _include all Australian plants which up to the present are known to be of economic value, or injurious to man and domestic animals.
