In the decade up to the outbreak of World War II. in 1939, the counties of Devon and Cornwall accounted for nearly 10% of the pig population of England and Wales. It is an exporting area for all classes of livestock, but the preponderance of exports over home consumption is indicated in pigs more than any other class of livestock as the figures in Table I., based on information obtained in a survey into the movements and slaughtering of livestock in 1930, show.*

The pollen grains of 300 species of 71 genera of the family Myrtaceae have been examined and their characteristic features summarized in tabular form. The investigation has been mainly concerned with those species that occur in the south-west, Pacific area, particularly Australia. For comparative purposes, the pollen morphology of a limited number of South American and two South African species has been included. The significance of pollen characters for distinguishing genera and species within the family is discussed. In some instances pollen morphology has provided additional evidence for the classification of certain species as suggested by taxonomists. A provisional key to pollen grains of the genera examined has been included.

The results reported cover 12 genera of the family Apocynaceae and 12 genera of the Annonaceae. The anatomical features of these genera have been summarized for each family and the results compared with published information on the representatives of the families from other parts of the world. An artificial key has been developed for the separation of groups of genera in the Apocynaceae. This separation, however, does not conform with groupings based on botanical features. Possible affinities of this family have been discussed. In the Annonaceae separation of the genera on anatomical features has been found to be diffcult on account of the homogeneity in wood structure of the family as a whoIe.

The results reported cover 20 genera of the Cunoniaceae and the two monotypic families Davidsoniaceae and Eucryphiaceae, each closely related to the Cunoniaceae. The anatomical features of the genera of these families have been summarized. In the Cunoniaceae these results have been compared with published information on the family and with features revealed by examination of the available species from other parts of the world. A grouping of the genera of the Cunoniaceae based on their wood anatomy is given for diagnostic purposes and for comparison with botanical grouping. Anatomical relationships between the three families are discussed and points of similarity or difference between them and other families likely to be confused with them, are pointed out.

Thirteen Oecetis species of the south-west Pacific area from Sulawesi, to Northern Australia and the Solomon Islands are placed in a new reticulata species-group on the basis of the distinctive shield-like tergite 8 in the males. Twelve new species are described in this paper: Oecetis accola sp. n., arawana sp. n., barbarae sp. n., catenulata sp. n., epekeina sp. n., kakaduensis sp. n., keraia sp. n., kolobota sp. n., oresbiosa sp. n parmata sp. n., piptona sp. n. and xaniona sp. n.; and a thirteenth species, reticulata Kimmins, is figured for comparison.

Examination of 13 genera from this area has indicated two structural groups within the timbers of the Flacourtiaceae. The wood anatomy of genera examined from areas other than the south-west Pacific area has been found to agree with these two groups. The anatomical features of each genus have been summarized and salient features set out in tabular form. From these an artificial key separating the genera, where possible, has been prepared. The grouping of the genera described based on wood anatomy is compared with the grouping of the family based on botanical features as suggested by Gilg (1925). Anatomical features separating the Flacourtiaceae from the groups of timbers with some similar characteristics have been indicated.
