Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transactions and Proceedings and Report of the Royal Society of South Australia, Vol. 23: For 1898-99
Naturally the work is somewhat imperfect, it being quite impossible for one not in possession either of all the necessary literature or extensive collections to discriminate whether a species appearing in various genera, under different authors, or from dissimilar localities (or vice versa), be one and the same or not, or whether different species have been included under similar names. This can ultimately only be determined by European workers to whom both literature and collections are accessible.
