I first saw this plant at Limestone, near Moreton Bay, and afterwards at the water-holes of Comet River.

It was extremely abundant in the bed of the Burdekin, and was last seen on the west side of the gulf of Carpentaria; I could, however, easily distinguish three species of this plant.

[They belong probably to the two genera, Aeschynomene and Sesbania.] Last evening, clouds gathered in the west, but cleared off after sunset; the night again cloudy, the forenoon equally so; in the afternoon the clouds were dissipated by a north-east wind.
March 24 .-- We travelled about nine miles N.60 degrees W.along the river; a small creek joined from the westward.

At night we had a heavy thunder-storm from the S.W.
March 25 .-- Weather very hot; clouds formed during the afternoon.

We continued our journey along the river to lat.
