p. 22. Brown on Proteaceæ. On W. coast of Australia species more resemble upon the whole those of Africa & on East a somewhat greater resemblance to American portion of the order.

[Top left margin:] Difficulty on my theory

p. 22 The most numerous genera in species of Proteaceae are most widely.

[Right margin:] For bold to suppose introduced from opposite sides

p 23 genera with fewest species & which exhibit generally the most remarkable deviations from the usual structures of the order are in the most local. The range of the species in the whole order seems to be very limited; the exceptions occur in the most extensive genera & in littoral species - one Banksia integrifolia, which ranges from Tropic to 40° has little extension in longitude - no species of family common to E & W shores of Australia.

[Bottom left margin:] Falsely It looks like a diffused, mundane influence
