Even when a sysicn has been formed, there is still something to add, to alter, or to reject. Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by antiquity, and transmits that hoard. augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages. In these pursuits, therefore, the first speculators lie under great disadvantages, and even when they fail, are entitled to praise.” Macavutay’s ‘‘Essay ON MILTON.” Published by Authority of THE GOVERNMENT OF THE STATE OF NEW SOUTH WALES. © 33497 A S_ LIBRARIES.

Branchlets terete, brown to glaucous. Mature leayes lanceolate, from about 6 to 15 cm. long, 1-3 em. broad, with straight or hooked points, greyish-green to sometimes glaucous on both sides, glabrous, midrib distinct, lateral veins fairly prominent, arranged at an angle of from about 45 to 55 degrees with the midrib, with a network of finer veinlets between, intramarginal vein fairly distant from the edge, oil glands small but numerous, petiole 2 mm. to 1 cm. long. Buds clavate, shortly pedicellate, acute, slightly glaucous, calyx-tube somewhat campanulate, 3 4 mm. long, staminal ring small but distinct, vertical, operculum conical, 2-3 mm. long. Flowers pedicellate, umbels chiefly in terminal panicles, with three to seven flowers, anthers semi- t rminal, broad, somewhat like those of #. crebra, gland at back, filament nearly at the base. Fruits pyriform to ovoid, truncate, 4-5 mm, long, 3-6 mm. in diameter, valves usually exserted, peduncles 5 mm. to 1-4 cm. long. Bark shortly fibrous to slightly furrowed. Timber reddish-brown, very hard, heavy and interlocked. Habitat.—A bout 20 miles north of Mungindi (type), Mookoo, and at Bumble in Queensland. About 15 miles south-east of Moree (Forest Guard W. M. Brennan). This species is named in honour of Adrian Wentworth Bucknell, Licensed Surveyor of Mookoo, who is much interested in the local plants, and has supplied many native names. 2 AFFINITIES. Its closest affinity appears to be with EZ. melanophloia and E. mucrotheca, but it seems to be more closely associated with the former in the forest, the two species often growing together, while H. microtheca may be a quarter of a mile away. E. populifolia and E. bicolor may be also growing near. Its bark on the trunk and branches may be described as being between that of a box tree and an ironbark, while the fruits somewhat resemble those of E. microtheca, although the valves of the latter are more exserted. In shape, the fruits are not unlike those of H. melanophloia, especially those from about 20 miles north of Mungindi (No. 4,462). The small-fruited form of £. Bucknelli (No. 4,389) from the south of Mungindi somewhat resembles E. populzfolia and EH. bicolor so far as the fruits are concerned, but the leaves and venation are different. From E. Yagobiei Maiden it differs mainly in the shape of the fruits and to some extent in the bark. The fruits of H. Yagobiei have strongly exserted valves. If it could be shown that this tree originated as a hybrid, then its parents would appear to be HL. melanophloia and EL. microtheca, but the trees are so numerous that it seems evident the species now reproduces itself, whatever may have been its origin. It is remarkable that where natural Hucalyptus hybrids are suspected, one of the supposed parents often belongs to the group of trees popularly known as Ironbark, while the other belongs to the Box group. Seedlings (No. 4,402 from Bumble). Plate 22, fig. 1. (Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W.) Hypocotyl terete, red, glabrous, 6 mm. to 1:5 cm. long.

DES@CRiEMI@N CCCLXXXIV. E. perplexa Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. TRonBaRK mediocris; cortice obscuro, valde sulcatis; foliis junioribus oblongis; foliis maturis oblongis vel oblongo-lanceolatis, tenuibus, inconspicue venosis, petiolatis, 4-8 cm. longis, 1-2-5 em. latis; fructu globoso, pedicellato, truncato vel valvis exsertis, 4-5 mm. A medium-sized ironbark; bark dark-coloured, deeply furrowed. Juyenile leaves, not seen in the earliest stage, oblong, obtuse. Young twigs slightly pruinose. Intermediate leaves, also imperfect, alternate, broadly oblong to oblong-lanceolate, usually emarginate, 4-9 cm. Jong, 2-3 cm. broad, shortly petiolate. Adult leaves alternate, petiolate, oblong to lanceolate, often somewhat obtuse or minutely apiculate, 4-8 em. long, 1-5-2-5 em. broad. Venation obscure, the midrib slightly raised beneath, flat or very faintly furrowed above; lateral veins very fine, diverging at an angle of 35-45° with the midrib; intramarginal vein very close to the revolute margin, or confluent with it. Inflorescence forming small axillary or terminal panicles. Buds not seen. Fruit sub-globose, 4 x 5 mm., truncate, pedicellate, the very small valves sometimes exsert. RANGE. It seems to be confined to tropical Western Australia and the Northern Territory. The following are the localities :— Western Australia : Between Erskine Range and Mount Marrion, August, 1906. “ On gravelly plains between Isdell River and Scented Knob occurs, of a few square miles in extent, an open forest of Ironbark” (W. V. Fitzgerald, June, 1905); Isdell River, near Mount Barnett Homestead, also at Barnett River (W. V. Fitzgerald, June, 1905). Northern Territory: Roper River Crossing (Professor Baldwin Spencer, and others, July-August, 1911). This specimen is not quite so glaucous as the previous specimens. : A RINI TIES: 1. With FE. crebra F.v.M. The similarity as regards the leaves is obvious, but those of H. perplexa are more oblong and glaucous than those of ZH. crebra. The small fruits of H. perplexa are undoubtedly somewhat similar to those of E: crebra, but the fruits of the former are more spherical and more glaucous than those of the latter. 2. With E. Culleni Cambage. This is also a tropical Ironbark, but the leaves are greener, the fruits, although somewhat spherical, are distinct in shape and size from the fruits of L. perplexa. 3. With E. melanophloia ¥.v.M. This appears to be its closest affinity as regards glaucousness and the shape of the fruit. In fact, it was regarded as a lanceolate-leaved form of E. melanophloia, but we now think that it is a species distinct from EF. melanophlova. DESCRIPTION. CCCLXXXV. FE. conglomerata Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. ArRgoR parva, stringybark; cortice aspero, fibroso, suleato; foliis junioribus, lineari-lanccolatis, stellato- pilosis; foliis maturis lanceolatis vel obliquo-lanceolatis, 6-12 cm. longis, 14-3 cm. latis; alabastris parvis, numerosis confertis in capitulis densis; fructu urceolato vel globoso, sessili in capitulis parvis globoso. A small Stringybark, 12-20 feet high; bark rough, thick, fibrous, deeply furrowed. Juvenile Leaves not seen in the earliest stage, alternate, sessile to very shortly petiolate, narrow- lanceolate, somewhat scabrous, with minutely denticulate, slightly revolute margins and when very young stellate-hairy, 1-5-4 cm. long, 4-8 mm. broad. Venation obscure. Intermediate Leaves alternate, very shortly petiolate, narrow-lanceolate to obliquely lanceolate, thick, light green, 4-8 cm. long, 1-5-3-5 cm. broad; venation obscure, lateral veins diverging at an angle of 40-50° to the midrib; intramarginal vein close to the edge. Mature Leaves alternate, petiolate, lanceolate to obliquely lanceolate or falcate-lanceolate, thick, coriaceous, somewhat glossy, 6-12 cm. long, 1-5-4 cm. broad; venation rather fine and somewhat obscure; lateral veins spreading at an angle of 25-30° to the midrib; intramarginal vein close to the edge. Inflorescence in axillary umbels of 10-18 small, sessile flowers. Buds slender, cylindrical, scarcely acute, about 5 mm. long; the peduncle 8-10 mm. long, usually strap-shaped. Anthers reniform, with a small terminal gland. Fruit sessile or nearly so, congested in dense, globular heads, pilular to slightly urceolate, with a broad orifice and a small oblique disc, about 5 x 5 mm., 3-4 celled, the very short deciduous valves enclosed. ; RANGE. It seems to be confined to Southern Queensland and the northern parts of New South Wales. In the latter State it has been found at Denman (W. Heron), Armidale district (A. W. Howitt. March, 1903). Queensland—Small trees, 12-20 feet high; bark stringy; ultimate branches naked. Sandy country on edge of peat swamps, Beerwah, Southern Queensland (W. D. Francis and C. T. White, No. 24, September, 1919). The type. APPINGNIES. 1. With E. eugenioides Sieb. It is readily distinguished from this species by its narrower suckers, densely packed buds and small globular fruits. It appears also to be a smaller tree than EL. eugenioides. 2. With E. globoidea Blakely. Both species are typical stringybarks, and they resemble each other a great deal in the compact, more or less conglomerate fruits, lyut the juvenile leaves of E. conglomerata are much narrower than those of ZL. globoidea.

Fructus abconicales, longa 4 ad 6 mm., diametros 6 ad 7 mm., valve exserte. A tree 30 to 40 fcet high with greyish, shortly-fibrous, box-bark on trunk and large branches. Adult leaves thick in texture, ovate-lanceolate to lanceolate, sometimes falcate, from 2 to 5 inches long, ? to 1 inch broad, greyish-green, with yellowish tint when dry, lateral veins at angle of about 50 to 65 degrees with midrib, intramarginal vein practically on the edge, petioles from about 1:5 to 2 cm: long. Fruits obconical, 4 to 6 mm. long, 6 to 7 mm. in diameter, valves exserted. Buds or flowers not seen.* Hahitat.—Near the Corella River, about 30 miles north of Cloncurry, on the road to Granada, No. 4,163. (Type.) It is known as White Box. Also probably scen from the train just east of Cloncurry, but not collected. Both localities are in the tropics. rN DES: This species has some affinities with EL. microtheca, (Coolabah) but its fruits are more conoid than those of the latter species, the pedicels and leaves much thicker, and the venation different. Moreover the Coolabah grows on the Black soil plains, a situation which this White Box seems to avoid. In the forest this species closely resembles H. microneura, (No. 4,162) and in August, 1913, with only scant material available, was regarded as probably the same species, but on production of further specimens collected by Mr. C. T. White in February, 1922, and after consultation with Messrs. Maiden and Blakely, it was considered these two trees were separate species. The fruits of Z. tropica are larger, the valves more exserted, and the leaves thicker in texture than those of L. microneura. The juvenile leaves described in 1915 are from the Croydon plant. * Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W., 1915, 49, 425. Also 1927, 61, . The Forsayth-Georgetown tree (No. 4,162), has since been doscribed as HZ. micronevra Maiden and Blakely, Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W., 1925, 59, 168, while the Croydon plant has been tentatively placed with Z. tropica. { Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W., 1915, 49, 424. 7 The fruits of £. siderophlora Benth. somewhat resemble those of EH. tropica, but in other respects the trees are quite dissimilar, the former being an Ironbark while the latter is a box-tree. E. Bowmani F.v.M., from Queensland, has never been identified as the fruits are unknown, but the margina] vein of the leaf is described as being “ at a distance from the edge,” while that of [?. tropica is close to the edge.

RANGE. In the present state of our knowledge it appears to be confined to a small coastal strip between Sydney and Oatley. The following are the localities :—Oatley (J. H. Camfield, April, 1901); Hurstville (same collector, J uly, 1897). The fruits are depicted on Plate 45, fig. 7c. The bark is more fibrous than that of the typical E. piperita, and is more like the Stringybark type. In part X, p. 305, the above specimen is referred to as follows :—* At Oatley, George’s River, near Sydney (J. H. Camfield), we have a form apparently normal piperita in every respect, except that the fruits are very coarse and large, thick-rimmed, and nearly pilular. They certainly show affinity to HL. pilularis, for which the fruits can be readily mistaken. I would call them an intermediate form.” Taronga Park (A.S. Le Souef, D. W. C. Shiress). Co-type. La Perouse (J. L. Boorman). The fruits are thinner than the above specimen, but they are not fully matured. AGN EUS: 1, With E. pilularis Sm. The mature leaves, buds, and fruits of EL. pseude-piperita resemble some specimens of £. pilularis, but the juvenile leaves are much broader, more aromatic, and of a darker green than those of HE. pilularis. 2. With F. piperita Sm. The leaves have almost the same aromatic perfume as those of HE. pipertta, but the buds, fruits and juvenile leaves are coarser. The bark is also different; it 1s more of a Stringybark than a Peppermint bark. 10 DESCRIPTION. COCLXXX VIII. FE. urceolaris Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. Arzor recta 50-80 pedes alta; cortice sub-fibroso in trunco; ramulis levibus; foliis junioribus sub-glaucis elliptico-lanceolatis; foliis maturis falcato-lanceolatis, crassis, coriaceous, alabastris pedicellatis. An erect tree 50-80 feet high, up to 4 feet in diameter; bark rough, sub-fibrous on trunk and main branches, smooth and ribbony on the small branches. Juvenile leaves sessile, ovate, cordate, or elliptical-lanceolate, thick, coriaceous, dark-green above, pale beneath, 4-8 cm. x 2-4-5 cm.; venation rather prominent on both sides; lateral veins few and distant, diverging at an angle of 40-45° with the midrib; intramarginal vein fairly close to the edge. Intermediate leayes not seen in a fully developed state, petiolate, thick, coriaceous, elliptical to obliquely lanceolate, slightly glaucous, 7-9 x 5 cm.; lateral veins diverging at an angle of 30-40° to the midrib; intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Mature leaves petiolate, lanceolate to obliquely-lanceolate, fairly thick, 8 x 20 cm., conspicuously veined on both surfaces, and with somewhat prominent revolute margins, the midrib scarcely prominent ; lateral veins rising at an angle of 35-40° to the midrib. The venation is irregular, in some leaves a few of the veins are somewhat longitudinal. Inflorescence in axillary umbels or forming short panicles, or the umbels bifurcate and sometimes deflexed; peduncles slender, semi-terete, up to 12 mm. long. Buds pedicellate, up to fifteen in the umbel, cylindroid-rostrate. Calyx-tube urceolate to campanulate, the rim slightly reflexed, 4-5 x 3 mm.; operculum rostrate, up to 6 mm. long. Filaments white, all antheriferous. Anthers small, reniform; style subulate, rather long. Fruit pedicellate, urceolate, with a short, or elongated narrow neck, 7-9 x 6-7 mm., valves usually deeply enclosed. The distinctly urceolate fruits readily separate it from its congeners. Timber pale pink, moderately light and fissile, and somewhat similar in texture to the timber of E. Sieberiana. It planes well and should make excellent furniture. According to Mr. A. Murphy, it is considered a good timber for heavy work and is used for sleepers In Part X, p. 302, attention is drawn to the urceolate fruits as follows :— ““ Messmate.” Wood of a yellowish colour; when fresh much inclined to ring. Urceolate, shape of fruit very pronounced, reminding one a good deal of those of E. trachyphloia, from which it differs in almost every other respect. See fig. 8, Plate 45, Wingello (J. L. Boorman). The type. ‘The reference to fig. 8, Plate 45, is an error, fig. 6 was intended. Fig. 8 is discussed at p. 304, and is again referred to in the Explanation of Plates, p. 345. 11 RANGE. So far it appears to be confined to the Wingello, Mittagong, and Moss Vale districts, New South Wales. Paddy’s River, Wingello (J. L. Boorman). “ Trees 40-80 feet high and 4 feet in diameter; timber used in the mills for battens, palings and building purposes.” A co-type. (A. and P.

Forsyth, October, 1900). Burrawang (H. Deane). AFFINITIES. 1, With E. Bottii Blakely. Both species are moderately large trees, producing a light-coloured serviceable timber, but the timber of 2. urceolaris appears to be superior to that of EB. Bottiz. On botanical characters the former may be readily distinguished from the latter by its urceolate buds and fruits. The venation of the leaves is also different. 2. With E. piperita Sm. E. urceolaris is a superior tree in every way to LE. piperita, and it also differs from it in the shape of the buds and fruits, as well as in the juvenile and adult leaves. 12 DESCRIPTION. COCLXXXIX.

Timber white, inclining to be gummy, fissile. I have pleasure in associating this uncommon species with the name of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Philip Callan, of ‘‘ Grantham,” Mittagong, whose kind hospitality led to its discovery, as also to another new species, 13 RANGE. Upto the present it has been collected between Mittagong and Wombeyan Caves, and at Marrangaroo, New South Wales. The following are the definite localities :— Back of Chalybeate Spring, near the Gib, Mittagong (D. W. C. Shiress, January, 1922). Bowral-Berrima road, about 3} miles from Mittagong (same collector, April, 1920). Bowral-Wombeyan Caves road, near the junction of the old Mittagong and Joadja roads (D.W.C.S., April, 1922). In April, 1923, I visited the same locality accompanied by Mr. Shiress and obtained specimens, which constitute the type. The trees were growing in poor white pipeclay-like soil, and resembled EL. eugeniordes in general appearance except that the bark is flatter and in broad strips, extending nearly to the branches, and not rough and fibrous throughout like E. eugeniordes. One mile west of Wingello, small patches on poor clay soil (W. Murphy, August, 1924). * Three miles south of Marulan on the side of a gravelly ridge. Bark smooth except on trunk, black flaky bark.” (Andrew Murphy, March, 1905.) Eighteen miles from Wombeyan Caves, Bullio to Wombeyan (J. H. Maiden, October, 1905). Marrangaroo, 102 miles west of Sydney (Dr. E. C. Chisholm, October, 1922). The leaves and buds are identical with those of EF. Callanw, but the bark appears to be less fibrous, except at the base. It is a young tree, and therefore the bark 1s not mature. ‘ ACETIC SS, 1. With E. Laseroni R. T. Baker. Both species are small Stringybarks with almost the same cortical characters, but the branches of £. Laseroni are usually smooth and gum-like, and the leaves are broader and have a different venation to those of H. Callwnii. There are also essential distinctions in the buds and fruits of both species. The half developed buds of L. Laseront are narrower and more stellate, and when mature are more clavate than the buds of E. Callanii. The fruits of the former are more depressecl than the fruits of the latter, while the timber of Z. Laseroni is yellowish-brown, that of 2. Callanii white. Geographically the species are widely separated. J. Laseroni is found nearly 400 miles north of Sydney, and it appears to prefer a bette;: class of soil to #. Callani. 14 2. With E. eugenioides Sieb. E. Callanii is a smaller tree than the typical E. eugenioides, and it has a more compressed flaky-fibrous bark on the trunk only, which does not stand out in longitu- dinal ridges like the bark of E. eugenioides. The timber is also dissimilar and inferior to that of H. eugenioides. The buds and fruits of both species are, however, almost dentical, but there is considerable diversity between the juvenile leaves of both species. Those of #. eugenioides are narrow, crinkled and stellate, whilst the juvenile leaves of E. Callanii are broad and comparatively smooth. 3. With E. vitrea R. T. Baker. The similarity of these trees is chiefly in the venation of their leaves, but the lateral veins of #. vitrea are even more longitudinal than those of E. Callanit. The floral organs, bark, and juvenile leaves, of course, sharply separate them. The “Critical Revision of the Genus Eucalyptus” was commenced by the late J, H. Maiden in 1903. At the time of his death there were still several parts to be published—concerning some species he had left full notes, concerning others he had left fragmentary notes only, while other species which had not been described, had, in some cases, been under discussion with one or both of us. In editing those parts of the “ Revision ” unpublished at the time of Mr, Maiden’s death we have, in accordance with his wishes, and in order to make the whole work as complete as possible, included species not described during Mr. Maiden’s lifetime. DESCRIPTION. CCCXC. E. pachycalyx Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. Gu tree parva; cortice levi, 2. maculate similu; foliis maturis lanceolato-faleatis, crassiusculis et obscuris, venis obscuris, 6-12 cm. longis, 141-24 em. latis; alabastris pedicellatis, cylindraceis vel concideis; operculo calyce crasso levi longiore; antheris latis oblongis (Platyanthere), loculis latis, lateralibus glandula parva, terminale; fructu non viso. A small Gum tree, with a smooth, spotted bark like that of HZ. maculata. Juyenile leaves not seen. Mature leaves alternate, on long slender petioles, narrow-lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate, or somewhat acuminate, 6-12 cm. long, 1-2-5 cm. broad, with a very fine and obscure venation; lateral veins diverging at an angle of 35-40° to the midrib, intramarginal vein confluent with the margin. Inflorescence in axillary wnbels of 5-7 pedicellate flowers. Buds moderately large, cylindrical to conoidal, 10-11 x 6 mm.; operculum concial, longer than the smooth, thick calyx. Anthers broadly oblong, adnate at the base and terminating in a small terminal gland. Fruit not seen. 2 RANGE. “A kind of Spotted Gum growing on the ranges at the back of Cairns, Queensland. Stunted trees, bluish bark with black spots.” (H. W. Mocatta, No. 13, December, 1915). This is the only locality known to us. Ak INGRIES. 1. With E. oleosa ¥.v.M. It resembles this species mainly in the anthers, which belong to Section Platyantherae. 2. With E. leptophleba V.v.M. The anthers of both species are somewhat alike, but those of LE. pachycalyx are somewhat broader than those of EL. leptophleba F.v.M. The leaves of the former and also the buds are different from those of the latter. 3. With E. Bowmani ¥.v.M. This is also indigenous to tropical Queensland, and up to the present is imperfectly known, but it appears to have broader leaves and different shaped anthers to those of E. pachycalyz. 965147 D 16 DESCRIPTION. CCCXCI, E. subviridis Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. ARBOR mediocris; cortice crasso, fibroso in trunco; ramulis levibus; foliis junioribus ovatis vel lato- lanceolatis, subviridibus; foliis maturis subviridibus, oblongo-lanceolatis; alabastris ovoideis, levibus, pedicellatis, 3-7 in umbella; fructu globoso; valvis exsertis, 7-9 x 8-10 mm. ‘A medium-sized tree; bark thick, matted-fibrous on trunk, smooth on branches. Juvenile leaves only seen in the alternate stage, shortly petiolate, ovate to broad-lanceolate, subviridis, thin, slightly undulate, 4-8 x 3-5 cm.; venation somewhat prominent on both sides; lateral veins diverging at an angle of 40-50° to the midrib, intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Intermediate leaves alternate, shortly petiolate, lanceolate to broadly and obliquely lanceolate, undulate, somewhat thick, subglaucous, 8-13 x 4-8 cm.; venation conspicuous; lateral veins very irregular and often furcate, radiating at an angle of 50-55° to the midrib; intramarginal vein sometimes 5 mm. from the margin. : Mature leaves alternate, petiolate, oblong to narrow-lanceolate, with a more obscure venation than the juvenile and intermediate leaves, diverging at an angle of 40-50° to the midrib; intramarginal vein somewhat distant from the edge. ; Inflorescence usually in axillary umbels of 3-7, shortly pedicellate, medium-sized flowers on short peduncles. Buds pedicellate, ovoid, smooth, scarcely acute, 7-8 x 5-6 mm. Calyx somewhat broadly campanulate, very shallow; operculum broadly conoid, 3-4 mm. long; filaments white, not very numerous; anthers rather large, versatile, with broad parallel cells and a large dorsal gland. Fruit pedicellate, somewhat globose to pilular, 7-9 x 8-10 mm.; disc rather prominent, with a distinct calycine ring and shortly exsert valves. Timber reddish, soft and gummy, inferior to its congeners. RANGE. So far it has only been found near the Pound Yard at Marulan, and along Jounama Creek, half a mile from Marulan, New South Wales (A. and P. Murphy, December, 1921). ATEN ES: 1. With E. cinerea F.v.M. It has the cortical characters of E. cinerea, but the foliage is greener, the buds are more numerous and not angular or acute, while the fruits are larger, more globular, and more numerous in the head. The seedlings of H. subviridis are slightly broader and greener, with reddish stem, than those of the typical E. cinerea. 2. With E. cinerea F.v.M. var. multiflora Maiden. The trees are much alike in the field, but the greener foliage of H. subviridis is readily distinguished from that of var. multiflora, which is decidedly more glaucous. The buds and fruits of the former are larger and of a different shape to those of the latter. 17 DESCRIPTION. CCCXCH. x E. McClatchie Kinney. Described in “ Eucalyptus.’’ p. 188 (1895) by Abbott Kinney, Los Angeles, California, U.S.A. (with one half-tone photograph). Leaves long-stalked, scattered, lanceolar or sickle-shaped, rather narrow, equally dull green; umbels solitary, axillary; stalk compressed, about as long as calyx-tube, stalklets short; calyx-tube truncate with two edges and tendency to be somewhat flattened or a little out of a true circle; buds very angular, ridges showing almost as wings; lid hemispheric, acuminate, central point of lid blunt and prominent valves enclosed, bark sheds in long strips; general appearance of tree suggests Hucalyptus globulus or Eucalyptus goniocalyx; anthers oblong. dorsal gland prominent; stamens all fertile, inflexed in bud; stigma not or scarcely broader than style. RANGE. Los Angeles, California (Abbott Kinney, 28th December, 1903). It is not known whether this tree is still in existence. Al PINT TES: 1, With E, Mortoniana Kinney. The buds of McClatchie have longer pedicels and shorter operculum than those of B. Mortoniana. The common peduncle of the former is longer and thinner than that of the latter. 2. With E. pseudo-globulus (Hort.) Naudin. ne E, McClatche is somewhat like EL. pseudo-globulus in the leaves, but differs from it in the shape of the operculum and in the fruit. It is perhaps nearer to this species than any other known to me. 18 DESCRIPTION. CCCXCIT. x E. Mortoniana Kinney. Described in ‘“‘ Eucalyptus,” p. 192 (1895), by Abbott Kinney,” Los Angeles, California, U.S.A. Leaves long-stalked, scattered, lanceolar or sickle-shaped, long and rather broad; equally dull green; Stalk compressed; about the length of calyx-tube; stalklet distinct; calyx-tube rough, often slightly ridged, top-shaped or truncate-ovate; border of a tube has the appearance of a pot of some thick fluid boiling over; lid hemispheric-acuminate, the point or beak of the lid is thick and long; buds flattened and angular; valves exscrted, generally four, or rarely three; bark sheds in long strips. Genera] appearance suggests H. globulus; anthers oblong, opening by parallel slits, dorsal gland prominent, style spotted, somewhat dilated towards top, stigma not dilated. Grown at Los Angeles, California, U.S.A. It is No. 237,908 in the United States National Herbarium. I have figured leaf, bud and fruits in Part XVIII, Plate 80, fig. 8. In the above part, p. 256, I have placed it as a synonym of #. Maideni, and I regarded it as one of the large-fruited forms of that species. I now think it is distinct from EH. Maideni, and it seems to me to be more closely allied to HE. McClatchie and E. pseudo-globulus than to E. Maideni. RANGE. Besides the Los Angeles locality quoted above, I have received two specimens from Miss Alice Eastwood, collected by herself and Eric Walther from Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, July, 1921; and February, 1922, which appear to be as near the type of #. Mortoniana as we are likely to get. Miss Eastwood in a letter to me refers to this species as follows :—‘‘ We had a specimen of Z. Mortoniana sent us in a collection made at the Forestry Station in Santa Monica’ (? the original tree of H. Mortoniana, J.H.M.), and I have identified two trees in Golden Gate Park by means of it. The two trees grow close together and are tall and handsome in general appearance, like L. globulus for which they might be mistaken. The bark, especially at the base of the trunk, is more persistent, and the young stems are brown instead of pale grey as in Z. globulus. The seedling leaves are not known.” Under E. Cordieri Trabut, Part LIT, Plate 213, figs. 3a and 3b, buds and fruit of this species are depicted, and were attributed to HZ. Cordieri by mistake. They are from No. 237, Herb. d‘Algerie (Dr. Trabut), and were collected by M. Cordier, who determined it as a hybrid of Z. globulus. Dr. Trabut wrote across the label ‘‘ x Hucalyptus Cordier, prob.” thus indicating that he was uncertain of the determination. 19 | ABTINIRIES. 1. With E. McClatchie Kinney and E. pseudo-globulus (Hort.) Naudin see pp. 17 and 28. 2. With E. bicostata Maiden, Blakely and Simmonds.. It seems to have the cortical characters of this species, but the buds and fruits are quite different. They are strictly sessile in EL. bicostata, and vary considerably in shape and thickness from those of #. Mortoniana. 3. With E. unialata Baker and Smith. E. Mortoniana appears to be closely allied to £. unialata in the buds and fruits. and also in the mature leaves,-but the former characters have longer pedicels and the fruits are a size larger. 20 DESCRIPTION. CCCXCIV. FE. Dixsont Wakefield, n.sp. Arpor parva 30-50 pedes alta; cortice persistente, fibroso usque ad ramos parvos; foliis junioribus— heteromorphicis, oppositis pallido-viridibus vel glaucis, angusto vel lato-lanceolatis; foliis maturis gracilibus, clavatis, operculo obtuso; fructu campanulato vel cupulare, 7 x 6 cm. “Usually a small tree, rarely exceeding 50 feet in height and 2 feet in diameter at the butt; the bark persistent to the finer branchlets ; the texture of the bark is fibrous, being almost intermediate between the Peppermint type and the Stringybark type. Leaves heteromorphic; mature leaves lanceolate-falcate, disposed vertically and drooping from the branchlets; intermediate leaves lanceolate, and some pale glaucous. Sucker leaves, two distinct forms to be found on the one plant—a small form very similar to the sucker leaves of H. radiata, but more ovate and pale green, not glaucous; the larger form closely resembles the suckers of #. dives, white glaucous, sessile and opposite, but usually more acutely acuminated ovate. Fruit resemble #. dives, in clusters of six to fifteen. “ Range.—Found in the Yambulla district, and specimens from which the type is described were collected 3} miles east from Yambulla Mountain, where a belt of considerable size is to be found. “Tt is found in ecological association with E. Consideniana and EF. eugenioides. There can be little doubt of its origin, as #. radiata x H. Consideniana, both of which occur widely distributed in the district. Occasional trees have also been observed near Timbilica and Yambulla and along the South Coast, south from Moruya, and it is probable, therefore, that its range may be considerably extended. “The most remarkable feature is the great diversity of form exhibited in the sucker leaves, A clump of suckers at the butt of the tree will usually be found to have the large glaucous leaves approaching E. dives. Suckers produced from adventitious buds higher, as the result of fire or other accident, are usually closely approaching #. radiata. Suckers about midway in character are also to be found. (The intermediate-leaved stage in nearly all species is very interesting.—J.H.M.) “ Heteromorphic Leaves and Ancestral Characters.—There appears to be considerable evidence in support of the view that ‘suckers’ produced from adventitious buds exhibit characters approximating the ancestral form of the species. In the development of an individual from such adventitious buds there appears to some degree to be a recapitulation of phylogeny. How far such characters may be justly so interpreted, and how far such forms are evidence of adaptations to new environmental conditions it is difficult to estimate. “The development of adventitious buds in the case of Z. Dixsoni is of considerable interest from this Point of view. The adult species is perhaps more closely allied to Z. Consideniana than to any other species. Only on very close examination of the bark is it possible to discriminate between the two species in the absence of leaves and fruits. These latter indicate affinities with H. radiata, and the leaves are almost intermediate in character. There can be little doubt that the new species is a product of these two widely different species. “A study of the development of ‘suckers’ from an adventitious bud in E. Dirsont is most instructive. The young shoots develop thin green lanceolate leaves almost identical with those of #. radzata, thus indicating its phylogenetic relationship. Such suckers may persist for some time, and sevcral have been measured exceeding 2 feet in length. Eventually, however, these delicate green leaves are replaced by large, coarse, glaucous leaves, very similar to the familiar sucker leaves of H. dives. Indeed, when the species was first observed the following note was made on the spot :—‘ A belt of a curious form exhibiting relationships with E. Consideniana and E. dives occurs about 1 mile north from the eastern end of Captain’s Swamp.’ Subsequent examination, however, clearly indicated its relationship with #. radiata and not with H. dives, as the secondary suckers would suggest. 21 “Now the delicate green primary suckers are to be regarded as indicating the true phylogenetic relationship, whilst the coarse, glaucous secondary suckers suggest an adaptation of such sucker growth, by the development of xerophytic structure, to environmental conditions unsuitable for the existence of thin green leaves of the #. Dixsoni type. The distribution of #. Dixsoni seems to be determined by its water requirements, and that it is restricted to zones of critical soil humidity. #. Dixsoni is found at higher altitudes on drier soils. The conclusion, therefore, that the EH. dives-like sucker is but a structural adaptation in response to the impress of more xerophytic conditions seems not unreasonable.” Named in honor of the late Sir Hugh Dixson, Abergeldie, Ashfield, New South Wales. (End of Mr. Wakefield’s remarks.) APEINGEES: Besides the affinities already discussed by Mr. Wakefield, it appears to me (W.F.B.) that E. Robertsoni bears a rather close relationship to H. Dixsoni in the shape and colour of the juvenile and adult leaves, and also in the shape of the buds and fruits. The latter characters are so much alike that it is sometimes difficult to discriminate between them, The much broader juvenile leaves of L. Dixsoni, however, separate it from EL. Robertson. The arboreal characters of both species are also dissimilar, and also the timbers. E. Dizsoni may be regarded as a far inferior timber tree to LZ. Robertsont. With E. dives Schauer. It is quite obvious that HZ. Dizsoni is more closely allied to EH. dives in all its botanical characters than to any other species, and in imperfect specimens one would say they are conspecific. It is interesting to note, also, according to Mr. Wakefield, that the oil of Z. Dixsoni is nearly of the same constituent as that of H. dives. It contains a large quantity of phellandrene. And, on the other hand, according to the same authority there are no plants of HZ. dives associated with H. Dixsoni. With E. radiata Sieb. var. latifolia Baker. I have not had the opportunity of closely examining this variety, and from the very imperfect description it would appear to be closely allied to it in the broad leaves, in fact, it may be conspecific with it, 22 DESCRIPTION. XCVITT. FE. globulus Labill. Investigations have shown that this is a very composite species so far as the Victorian and New South Wales plants are concerned, which should never have been united with the Tasmanian plant. For a number of years I have been puzzled with what I regarded as transit forms between FL. globulus and EL. Maideni, and often discussed them with my assistant, Mr. W. F. Blakely, and referred to them as the Z. globulus-E. Maideni puzzle. And in 1921-22 we critically examined the whole of the material of both species in the National Herbarium as well as the fruiting specimens in the Melbourne Herbarium. The results of our investigations will be seen presently, as also those of the Rev. J. H. Simmonds of New Zealand. It is mainly due to the latter gentlemen’s close association with the cultivated forms of #. globulus in New Zealand that led to the discovery thatthe Tasmanian and Mainland trees were distinct species. In Part XVIIL, p. 249, of the present work, Z. globulus is fully described and figured at Plate 79, whilst in Part LXV, p. 218, the juvenile leaves. were described, which were omitted from the former part. In Part XVIII, Plate 79, the following figures are referable to B. globulus :— 1. Juvenile leaf (Coll. Labillardicre, in Herb., Kew). (Tasmania.). - 2a. Juvenile leaf; 2b, mature leaf.

The Victorian and New South Wales reterences to its range in Part XVIII, p. 251, are mainly referable to H. bicostata. ho (2 Var. compacta, n. var. Juvenile leaves the sam2 as in Z. globulus in shape, but smaller. Mature leaves alternate, lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate, dark green to slightly glaucous, 10 to above 20 cm. long, 1-3 or more cm. broad; venation the same as in the species. Buds glaucous, single or in pairs, occasionally the well-developed peduncle supporting three closely sessile, broadly turbinate to almost hemispherical, glandular-warty, buds; operculum rather small, abruptly apiculate, and, like the calyx-tube, tuberculate. Fruit not seen in a fully ripe state; hemispherical with a rather prominent disc and somewhat deeply sunk valves, usually bicostate, 13 x 15 mm., but when fully developed much larger. The fruit on the whole is much smoother than that of #. globulus, and it is not unlike the fruit of EZ. becostata, except that it appears broader at the base, but it may even be found to be narrow-turbinate in fully developed specimens. The name var. compacta appears in list of Eucalyptus cultivated in America, but it does not appear to have been described. RANGE.

Fructus disco convexo latoque. Ligno pallida, firmo, durabili. A Blue Gum, 40-150 feet high; bark smooth, decartientine annually in thin strips or flakes ; juvenile leaves large, very. glaucous, opposite, sessile, ovate-cordate to oblong-lanceolate; adult leaves green, faleate-lanceolate, 1-7 dm. long; buds sessile, usually in three, warty-glandular, bicostate, subtended by broad, thin, connate, deciduous bracts; fruit turbinate to globular, with a conspicuous thick disc, 12-17 x 14-20 mm.; timber pale-coloured, close-grained, hard and durable. A moderately large tree with the general appearance of HZ. globulus and E. Maident. The bark persists on the lower portion of the trunk of large trees for a short distance, and is usually very rough, dark grey or brown, coarse-fibred, the upper portion and branches smooth, blue-green, shading to grey-green, or rarely of a uniform colour, except perhaps when the old bark peels off during the flowering season. Juvenile leaves similar to those of EL. globulus; adult leaves light to dark-green, pendent, usually falcate-lanceolate, on long petioles 4-28 inches long. See figure of the leaves of L. globulus, Critical Revision, Part XVIII, Plate 79, figs. la, 2a, 2b. Buds 1-3, usually 3, axillary, glaucous, sessile, on a very short peduncle, or the peduncle totally obliterated, bicostate, or the calyx of the two lateral buds convexed on the outer surface, smooth or usually more or less warty-glandular, 7-13 mm. long, 6-12 mm. broad at the top. Operculum thick, depressed hemispherical to somewhat-cap-shaped, usually very warty, gradually or abruptly pointed or sometimes rostrate, and when the latter much longer than the calyx-tube. Bracts deciduous, but sometimes remaining attached until the buds develop, thin, connate, broad, and obtuse, rarely as long as the calyx-tube. Mueller appears to have been the first to observe the bracts and they are figured by him in the *“EKucalyptographia”’. Fruit turbinate to globular, sessile, bicostate, usually shghtly warty between the ribs, 4-5 celled, the rim broad, moderately smooth and thick, sometimes concealing the short, thick valves. The fruits are depicted on Plate 79, figs. 6, 8, 9a, 9b, 9c, 12, all of which are unripe, and therefore immature; dead ripe and mature fruits were not available at the time. Timber.—In the southern districts of New South Wales it is known as “‘ Eurabbie” and is a tall tree, 40-80 feet high, with thick straight stems 20-40 feet to the first branch. The timber is pale-coloured, is valued highly and largely used in tail-races for mining purposes, also for bridge decking and girders when well seasoned. It is tough and valuable for coach and cabinet material; it also makes excellent fuel. i 25 Specimens from Mundaroo State Forest, Tumbarumba district, New South Wales (W. A. W. de Beuzeville) constitute the type. They are almost identical with specimens from Burrinjuck (J. L. Boorman, R. H. Cambage), which may be regarded as co-types. They are not unlike some specimens from Jenolan Caves (W. F. Blakely) and one from — Parish of Otway, Victoria, at an elevation of 500 feet, 1 mile from the sea (A.V. Galbraith). The fruits of the latter are more fully developed than any of the above specimens, and are slightly larger and more globular. In the majority of specimens that have been examined, the so-called small fruited forms are really fruits which have not reached maturity. SYNONYM. E. globulus F.v.M., Benth., and others, non Labill. RANGE. So far it appears to be confined to the coastal and cool mountain districts of New South Wales and Victoria. In New South Wales it is common on the Upper Murray and Tumut Rivers, and in the counties of Selwyn, Wynyard, Buccleuch, and Cowley generally. Further north, it occurs at Burrinjuck, Jenolan Caves, &c. Going still further north, it is found on Nulla Mountain, Rylstone (Mudgee) districts, and in New England (Nundle and Walcha districts). In Victoria it is confined chiefly to Gippsland, and is said to reach a height of at least 200 feet. JN EEIUNIUUE, Sy. 1. With E. globulus Labill. It is closely allied to Z. globulus, with which it had been confused for many years, and from which it differs in the more numerous and smaller flowers in the head, smaller and usually two-ribbed fruits, and in the semi-persistent floral bracts. In H. globulus the buds are usually solitary, large and four-ribbed or four-angled and very warty. The fruits are also four-ribbed, and sometimes with smaller ribs between the prominent ones. There does not appear to be any essential difference between the juvenile and-adult leaves of both species, and in a young state the plants are very similar. Lf. brcostata does not appear to be as adaptable as FZ. globulus, and is unable to make the same rate of growth under cultivation as E, globulus, Its timber is also inferior to that of the last-named species. 26 2. With E, Maideni F.v.M. It resembles this species mainly in cortical characters, and in the juvenile leaves and timber, ae 3. With E. paradoxa Maiden and Blakely. There appears to be but little difference between the bark, juvenile leaves and timber of £. paradora and E. bicostata, but the buds and fruits of the former are more numerous in the heed and the pedicels are well developed. The fruit is also larger. bo J DESCRIPTION. | COC RUG WA TE St. dona OR. Tako Journ. Aust. Assoc. Adv. Science, xiv (January, 1913); Vict. Nat., xxx ,127 (November, 1913).

Internodes quadrangular, glaucous. Intermediate leayes opposite to alternate, sessile to shortly petiolate, oblong to oblong- lanceolate, apiculate to acuminate, very glaucous on the lower surface, and usually of a dark-green colour on the upper surface, 10-16 cm. x 6-10 cm.; venation somewhat distant and more or less distinct, the lateral veins very irregular and much branched upwards, usually diverging at an angle of 50-60° with the midrib; intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Internodes quadrangular, glaucous. Mature leayes alternate, lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate, usually acuminate, 10-35 cm. long, 2-5 em. broad, or broader; venation moderately distinct, the lateral veins rather fine, radiating at an angle of 35-40° with the midrib; intramarginal veins usually distant from the margin. Inflorescence in axillary triads, the common peduncle compressed 10-12 mm. long, 5 mm. broad at the top, bearing three moderately large pedicellate flowers. Buds clavate, slightly angular, subglaucous, the short, verrucose operculum umbonate to apiculate. Calyx turbinate, tri or quadrangular, smooth, usually longer than the operculum; filaments white; anthers versatile, the cells rather long and with a large dorsal gland. Pedicels usually quadrangular, as long as or longer than the calyx-tube. Fruit pedicellate, turbinate, moderately thick, smooth or with 1-2 short ribs, 10-12 mm. long and about as broad across the top; disc prominent, usually fused to the well exserted valves and often concealing them. RANGE. As already stated in Part LII, p. 78, this species was first noticed in Algiers and was regarded by Naudin as a hybrid of Z.globulus. I am now convinced that it is a natural hybrid, and in the present state of our knowledge it appears to be confined to. Metung, Victoria, and was collected by Dr. A. W. Howitt, January, 1906; JM, J uly 1908, and J. L. King, August, 1909. In Part XVIII, p. 258,1 referred to the above specimens as abberrant forms of Z. Maideni. Ihave also received a cultivated specimen from New Zealand, collected by the Rev. J. H. Simmonds, which seems to come very close to this species, and at the same time it shows affinity to 2, McClatchie Kinney. 29 AFFINITIES. 1. With FE, Maideni F.v.M. The buds are warty, like those of 2. Mazdeni, but they are invariably in threes, and larger than those of #. Maideni. The fruit is also larger, and it seems to be inter- -mediate between the fruits of H. Maideni and E. McClatchie. 2. With E, McClatchie Kinney. It differs from this species in the warty buds and larger fruits; it is also more glaucous than E. McClatchie. . 3. With E. Mortoniana Kinney. It seems to differ from £. Mortoniana in the longer pedicels, verrucose buds and different shaped fruits, particularly as regards the sculpture of the disc. 4. With E. paradoxa Maiden and Blakely. It is readily distinguished from this species by the warty operculm and in the turbmate fruits. The buds of 2. paradova are smooth and exceed more than three in the umbel, while the fruits are mallet-shaped. 5. With E. bicostata Maiden, Blakely and Simmonds. It appears that both trees are somewhat alike as regards the bark, juvenile and mature leaves, but the buds and fruits of L. pseudo-globulus are conspicuously pedicellate, while those of L. bicostata are sessile; there is also marked variation in the shape of the buds and fruits of both species. ‘30 DESCRIPTION. | —CCOXCVI. E. paradoxa Maiden and Blakely, n sp. Gum altiuscula; cortice levi, maculoso praeter basin trunci; foliis junioribus glaucis, ovato vel lato- lanceolatis; foliis maturis atro-viridibus, falcato-lanceolatis; alabastris 3-7 in umbellis axillaribus, levibus; operculo lato-conico; fructu sub-globoso; disco prominente; valvis crassis, cxsertis, 10 x 1] mm. A moderately large Gum tree; bark smooth, except at the base. Juvenile leaves broad, glaucous, somewhat similar to those of Z. Macdeni. Adult leaves lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate, coriaccous, with long petioles, 10 to over 20 cm. long, 1-5-5 cm. broad; venation distinct, the midrib raised on the lower surface, forming a shallow channel above; lateral veins very irregular, usually wavy or rarely straight, somewhat numerous, spreading at an angle of 35-45° with the midrib; intramarginal vein usually conspicuous and well removed from the margin, which gives the leaf a somewhat triplinerved appearance. Inflorescence in axillary umbels of 3-7 pedicellate flowers, the centre one on longer pedicels than the lateral ones. Common peduncle compressed-angular, up to 20 mm. long, 3-4 mm. broad. Buds shortly clavate, acute, or the operculum sharply conical, minutely glandular-rugose, but not warty, 10-12 x 6mm. Calyx goblet-shaped, thin, about the same length as the operculum; pedicels quadrangular 4-5 mm. long. Fruit mallet-shaped to sub-globose, rather thick, pedicellate, 10 x 11 mm., the rim somewkat sharp and oblique, with a rather large capsular disc which extends nearly halfway over the strong, deltoid, slightly exsert, valves; the calycine portion smooth, or sometimes unicostate. Timber.—‘‘ Has a yellowish, inclining to light-brown chip, very much like E. globulus” (J. L. King). Probably a good timber. Mlustrations.—Buds and fruits are depicted on Plate 80, figs. 10a, 10b, and 11, under F. Mardent. So far it is known only from Metung, Victoria. “ A large tree, has a bark like E. globulus (E. bicostata), but not so light in colour, in fact it seems half way between E. tereticornis and E. globulus,’ Metung (J. L. King). Tree by the Waterhole at the 60 acres, Metung (A. W. Howitt). ANCAUSIICUES), 1. With E, Maideni F.v.M., from which it differs in the shape of the buds, which are more angular with a sharp calycine rim. The operculum is also conoid, not dome-shaped and apiculate and warty like E, Maident. The fruit is also less truncate and more subglobose, and abruptly tapers into a long, quadrangular pedicel. It is also non-glaucous, except the juvenile leaves. 31 2. With E. bicostata Maiden, Blakely and Simmonds, It seems to have almost the same habit and cortical characters as the above, but it is readily distinguished from it in the more numerous pedicellate buds and fruits, which also differ in size and shape, and they are non-glaucous. 2. With E. oviformis Maiden and Blakely. Tt has the field characters of EZ. oviformis, and it also resembles it in the shape of the buds, but the fruits are distinct. 65147—F (20) ho DESCRIPTION: COCXCVIM. E. oviformis Maiden and Blakely, ISD. Arpor altiuscula; cortice levi, maculoso; foliis maturis crassiusculis, prominente venosis, lato-lanccolatis; alabastris pedicellatis, 5-7 in umbella; operculo conico, calyce tubo longiore; fructu ovoideo, disco prominente, valvis exsertis, 12 x 11 mm. A moderately large tree; bark smooth like Z. tereticornis, but lighter and with reddish patches and black blotches. (J. L. King.) Juvenile leaves not seen. Mature leaves alternate, petiolate, rather thick, coriaceous, broad-lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate, acuminate, 7-20 x 2-3-5 cm.; venation somewhat distinct, rather fine and distant, diverging at an angle of 40-50° to the midrib; intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Inflorescence in axillary umbels of 5-7 pedicellate, medium-sized flowers. Peduncle compressed, strap-shaped, broader at the top, up to 17 mm. long. Buds cylindrical, scarcely acute, 10 mm. long; operculum somewhat sharply conical to slightly rostrate, somewhat glandular-rugose, longer than the small, slightly angular, calyx-tube. Pedicels quadrangular, 5-7 mm. long. Anthers versatile, opening in long parallel slits, and with a large dorsal gland. Fruit nearly ovoid or mallet-shaped, 12 x 11 mm., with a broad, thick disc extending well over the short exsert, deltoid, valves, and with a clearly defined calycine ring; the rather long pedicel more or less quadrangular. Timber reddish, but not so deep a red as E£, tereticornis. It appears to be close-grained, hard and interlocked. RANGE. It is known only from Metung, Victoria (J. L. King, August, 1909). Only one tree observed by Mr. King. When I received the specimen I made the following note :— “T think a Eucalyptus hybrid in which probably the small-fruited globulus plays a part.” In 1912 I was of the opinion that it was a transit form of EH. Maideni, and depicted it as such in Crit. Rev., Part XVIII, Plate 80, figs. 12a, 12b. We now agree that it is more closely allied to E. tereticornis than any other species known to us, and that it may be a natural hybrid between EZ. tereticornis and E. paradoxa. 33 AFFINITIES. 1. With E, tereticornis Sm. - It is closely allied to Z. tereticornis, from which it may be distinguished by the lighter coloured timber, coarser peduncles, larger and different shaped glandular buds, and much larger ovoid fruits. It is very distinct from specimens of E. tereticornis from the same locality. 2. With EF, Maideni F.v.M. Tt has the cortical characters of H. Maideni, and also resembles it somewhat in the shape of the fruits. 3. With E, paradoxa Maiden and Blakely. It resembles that species in cortical characters and to a limited extent in the buds and fruits. We have not seen the juvenile leaves of LH. oviformis, and therefore cannot say whether they are glaucous or not. DESCRIPTION. CCCXCIX. E. niphophila Maiden and Blakely, n-sp.

Branchlets, inflorescence, and fruit very glaucous. Juvenile leaves not seen in a fully developed state, the first two or three pairs opposite, sessile to very shortly petiolate, ovate to orbicular, apiculate, light green, not glaucous, 2-3-4 cm. long, 1-5-2-5 em. broad. Venation very fine, distinct on both sides, the lateral veins often branched, diverging at an angle of 30-40° with the midrib, the secondary veins very numerous and reticulate, the intramarginal vein distant from the slightly revolute margin. Stems and internodes compressed reddish-brown, without any trace of glaucousness, the internodes up to 8 cm. long. Intermediate leaves not seen. Mature leaves alternate, petiolate, lanceolate to lanceolate-falcate, somewhat aequilateral with acuminate or uncinate points, thick, coriaceous, shining on both surfaces, 3-8 cm. long, 1:7-2:5'em. broad. Venation somewhat longitudinal, distinct or sometimes totally obscure owing to the thickness of the leaves, the median nerve almost indistinguishable from the very fine lateral veins which sometimes extend the whole length of the leaf, but which usually diverge at an angle of 5-15° with the midrib; intramarginal vein usually close to the thick nerve-like margin. Petioles compressed-terete, glandular-rugose, up to 15 mm. long. Inflorescence in short axillary umbels of 3-7 flowers. Peduncles rather thick, terete, usually much shorter than the buds.

Calyx thick, broadly funnel-shaped, rather shallow, longer than the operculum. Filaments white, filiform, numerous, inflected, with perfect and rudimentary anthers. Anthers reniform, the broad, whité, papery cells more or less lateral and terminating in a small gland. Style slender; stigma very small. Fruit globose to turbinate, truncate, sessile or shortly pedicellate, usually very glaucous like the branchlets, glandular-rugose, the flat disc broad and thin, and usually partly concealing the very short enclosed valves, 7-10 mm. long, 9-11 mm. in diameter, invariably three-celled. It is depicted in this work, Part V, Plate 26, fig. 6 (leaves and fruits), Plate 27, fig. 3 (juvenile leaves). All from Mount Kosciusko. There are also photographs of this species in ‘‘ The Forest Flora of New South Wales,” Part XV, Plate 58, facing pages 114 and 115, also a reproduction of fig. 6 above. SYNONYM. E. coriacea A. Cunn. var. alpina F.v.M. 35 RANGE. It is common in the alpine regions of New South Wales and Victoria. It does not appear to extend into Tasmania. Victorta.—Mount Hotham, Victorian Alps (J. H. Maiden); Buffalo Mountains (Mr. West, per C. Walter). New South Wales.—Pretty Point, Mount Kosciusko, also at the “ tree-line,” about 6,500 feet elevation (J. H. Maiden and W. Forsyth, January, 1899). The type. Upper Cotter, Canberra, top of Bimberi Peak near Trig. Station, 6,264 feet, “ the only Eucalypt on the summit, 10-20 feet high ’” (R. H. Cambage, No. 3470). “ Small trees with a smooth bark and gnarled, bent and twisted stems,” top of Mount Tabletop, about 6,000 feet (EH. Betche, February, 1887). /AMEVeHINIID Rebs 1. With E, coriacea A. Cunn. It is readily separated from LB. coriacea by the glaucousness of its characters, much smaller juvenile and adult leaves, fewer flowers in the umbels, and in the smaller fruits. 2. With E. de Beuzevillei Maiden. This is another alpine species which displays glaucousness in the young shoots, buds, and fruits, but on the whole it is a much larger tree, while the buds and fruits are markedly mors angular and coarser than those of EL. niphophila. 36 DESCRIPTION.

Bark on trunk rough, intermediate between a Box and a Peppermint bark, smooth on the branches, which decorticates in short, thin ribbons. Juvenile leayes not seen in the earliest stage, opposite, lanceolate, shortly petiolate and slightly glaucous, 6 cm. long, 3 cm. in diameter, Venation indistinct, the lateral veins diverging at an angle of 40-50° with the midrib. Intermediate leaves somewhat glaucous when fresh, broadly and obliquely lanceolate, on long petioles, thin, coriaceous, 8-15 em. long, 3-7 cm. broad; venation fairly distinct, the median nerve rather small, compressed beneath, slightly channelled above; lateral veins radiating at an angle of 20-40° with the midrib, the intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Mature leaves alternate, petiolate, narrow-lanceolate to obliquely falcate-lanceolate, acuminate, the long slender apex often uncinate, rather thin and shining on both surfaces, with very obscure veins, 7-21 cm. long, 1:5-2:5 cm. broad, median nerve very slender, slightly raised beneath, faintly channelled above, usually excentric and closer to the lower margin; lateral veins diverging at an angle of 25-80° with the midrib; intramarginal vein close to the edge.

Fruit pedicellate, ovoid to nearly globular, truncate, rather thick, with a distinct flat or slightly oblique dark-coloured, thick disc; valves four, minute, enclosed below the lower edge of the disc, 6-7 x 8-9 mm. Illustrations.—It is depicted in the present work, Part X, Plate 45, figs. 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, under FL. piperita, and at p. 304 it is referred to as follows :—‘‘ At Wingello, New South Wales, there is an interesting tree known as ‘ Messmate,’ one of two or three local trees which display variation. This particular ‘Messmate’ has fruits with rather thicker rim than the normal piperita, and some fruits even display a rim like eugenioides. It would be difficult, from fruits and leaves alone, to say whether this specimen is eugenioides or piperita, under which species I have accordingly arranged it. See fig, 8, Plate 45.” RANGE. So far, it appears to be confined to the Wingello district, New South Wales. ““ There are several trees of this species growing in the vicinity of Wingello township. In general appearance they look like EZ. pilularis, by reason of their rough stems and smooth-barked branches,” (J. L, Boorman and Andrew Murphy). tw aI AFFINITIES. 1. With E. piperita Sm. E. congener resembles FL. piperita somewhat in the leaves, buds and to a certain extent inthe fruits. The latter vary from pyriform to semi-pyriform, and are considerably thicker, with a prominent red rim, and a broader orifice than the typical E. piperita. Mr. J. L. Boorman suggests that it may be a natural hybrid between FE. piperita and E. Steberiana. The fruits and the juvenile leaves approach those of E. Sveberiana somewhat. 2. With E. Bottii Blakely. : This appears to be its closest affinity, from which it differs in being a smaller tree with leaves of.a slightly different venation, and in the juvenile branches being reddish, not pruinose, in the fewer buds in the umbel, with their relatively shorter opercula, and in the thicker and different shaped fruits with their reddish, thick disc. The leaves also are less aromatic than those of H. Bottii, and the timber appears to be paler and inferior to the timber of the latter species. 3. With ©. urceolaris Maiden and Blakely. It would appear that both species have the same general appearance in the field, but the conoid-clavate buds and the pilular fruits of H. congener readily separate it from #. urceolaris, which has urceolate-rostrate buds, and distinctly urceolate fruits. Both species are said to yield a good durable timber, superior to that of the typical E. piperita. 38 DESCRIPTION. CDI, FE. nubilis Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. Tronpark parva, glauca; foliis junioribus ovatis vel lato-lanceolatis, 7-14 cm. longis, 4-8 cm. latis; foliis maturis lanceolatis, glaucis, 6-16 cm. longis, 1-5-3 cm. latis; alabastris cylindraceis vel conoideis, obtusis ; antheris reniformibus; fructu pyriformi; pedicellis gracilibus. A small to medium-sized Ironbark, with a rugged, dark, fibrous bark throughout, and with slightly glaucous branchlets, leaves, buds and fruits. Juvenile leaves not seen in the earliest stage, some of the lower leaves opposite for 3-4 pairs, petiolate, ovate to broad-lanceolate, slightly glaucous, coriaceous, 7-14 x 4-8 cm.; venation not very distinct, the lateral veins somewhat distant, diverging at an angle of 45-50° to the midrib; intramarginal vein usually distant from the edge. é Mature leaves alternate, petiolate, narrow-lanceolate to falcate-lanceolate or acuminate, coriaceous, rather dull and subglaucous, 6-16 x 1-5-3 cm.; venation obscure, the lateral veins usually spreading at an angle of 40° to the midrib; intramarginal vein close to the edge. EInflorencence in axillary umbels or forming short terminal paniculate racemes. Buds 5-12 in the head, usually on slender, slightly angular, pedicels, ovoid to cylindrical, obtuse or rarely very acute, 10-12 x 5 mm., the campanulate calyx-tube usually shorter than the obtuse, conical operculum. Antheis reniform, with very broad lateral cells and a small terminal gland. Fruit pedicellate, clavate to pyriform, 7 x 6 mm., or even smaller, slightly constricted at the top with a very small, scarecly visible ring and 3-4 very small, slightly exsert, valves. Timber.—* Blue-leaf Ironbark.” Mr. J. V. de Coque recently drew attention to this tree, and pointed out that its timber is inferior to that of the other Tronbarks of the Dubbo district. Its timber is of an inferior quality, both as regards “ringing” and “ splitting” (cracking), so much so that the timber-getters never cut it except for rails. Mr. Boorman points out that it grows on slightly elevated lands, and is confined to such situations only. When growing in the forest it can readily be noted by its glaucous appearance. (Original description.) Illustrations.—It is depicted at Plate 47, Part X, as HL. siderophlota var. glauca, figs. 29-33. SYNONYM. E. siderophloia Benth., var. glauca Deane and Maiden, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., XXIV, 461 (1899). RANGE. It is not plentiful and seems to be confined to moderately dry areas both in New South Wales and south-western Queensland. New South Wales.—Between Murrumbidgerie and Mudgee, also 8 miles from Dunedoo (Andrew Murphy); Peak Hill (R. H. Cambage). Not quite typical, but it is nearer to this species than to Z. siderophlcia. Minore (J. L. Boorman); 6 miles ; 39 rom Dubbo (H. Deane, J. L. Boorman. Type locality); Midway, near Dubbo (J. L. Boorman); Melleroi, Pilliga district (HE. H. F. Swain); Gungal and Emmaville (J. L. Boorman). Queensland.—A Box, similar to Gum-topped, occurs only on hard, elevated country, Inglewood (C. J. Smith, per C. T. White); Chinchilla State Forest (G. Singleton, pez C. T. White). ve TNS: 1. With E. siderophloia Benth. Tt is readily separated from this species by the narrow, glaucous ioe, smaller buds and fruits. The latter have not the quadrangular pedicels of the typical E. siderophloia, and the juvenile leaves of EL. nubilis are also smaller than those of E. siderophloia. It is also a much smaller tree, and although it has a moderately wide range, it is more restricted in its distribution than is EL. siderophloia. 2. With E. Murphyi Maiden and Blakely. The narrow mature leaves and the small fruits of . nubslis are somewhat like those of FE. Murphyz, but the latter species is not quite so glaucous, while the timber appears to be far superior to that of the former. 65147—G 40 DESCRIPTION: CDI. E. Grasbyi Maiden and Blakely, n.sp.

Oil glands very numerous. Inflorescence in small axillary umbels of 4-8 small, white flowers. Peduncle slender, terete or nearly so. Buds pedicellate, conical, scarcely acute, 6 mm. long, the smooth conical operculum about one and a half times longer than the small cupular calyx; pedicels slender, scarcely as long as the buds. Filaments exceeding the buds, all antheriferous, with broad-celled anthers. Style slender, almost terete ; stigma very small. Floral disc forming a small, dark, carnose lining around the calyx-tube, but free from the ovary. Fruit not seen. Named in honour of William Catton Grasby, Agricultural Editor of “‘ The Western Mail,” who for a number of years has taken a keen interest in the flora of Western Australia. RANGE. _It is known only from Lake Barlee, Western Australia (Fitzgerald Fraser, through W. C. Grasby, September, 1919). AP TUINGIES: 1. With E. Kochii Maiden and Blakely. It is a small slender tree like EZ. Kochii, with narrow-lanceolate leaves, and small slender buds. The leaves, however, are broader than those of EL. Kochi, and although the buds are about the same size in both species, the operculum is more elongated in £. Grasbyi, and the calyx is relatively shorter. 2. With E. longicornis F.v.M. It has the same shaped buds as EH. longicornis, but they are considerably smaller, while the peduncle and pedicels are more filiform. When the fruit is obtained it will probably be much smaller and more hemispherical than that of E. longicornis. 41 DESCRIPTION. CDI. E. Kochit Maiden and Blakely, n-sp.

Filaments inflected in the bud, very long, except a few of the inner ones, which scarcely exceed the attenuated style; stigma very small, dark-coloured. Anthers (Platyantherae) rather large, the cells broad and globular when fully expanded. Fruit pedicellate, broadly urceolate, truncate, thick, slightly rugose, 7 x 6 mm., 3-4 celled, with very fine subulate valves which sometimes slightly protrude beyond the contracted orifice. Illustrations.—It is depicted, under £. oleosa, as a form, in this work, Part XV, Plate 66, figs. 2a, 2b, 2c. It is known only from Watheroo rabbit fence, Western Australia (Max Koch, Nos. 1608, 1990, 1990a, September, 1905). It is named in honour of the late Mr. Max Koch, who for more than thirty years took a very keen interest in the flora of South and Western Australia, and distributed specimens to the leading herbaria in different parts of the world. He died in 1925. AFFINITIES. 1. With E, oleosa ¥.v.M. It appears to differ from Z. oleosa in habit and also in the bark, as well as in the narrow leaves, which dry a very pale colour, in the different shaped buds, and in the urceolate fruits. 2.

Operculum depressed-conical or convex, of a greater diameter than the calyx-tube, striate, _4 mm. long, 8 mm. in diameter. Anthers adnate, with broad lateral cells. Fruit not seen. RANGE. Known only from Boorabbin, west from Coolgardie, Western Australia (Dr. A. Morrison, 16th January, 1906). We have had this specimen since 1906, and at one time labelled it L. incrassata var. scyphocalyx F.v.M., but after carefully comparing it with the type of var. scyphocalyz, came to the conclusion that it was a distinct species, and it was set aside, thinking that some day it would be augmented with additional material. As that wish has not been fulfilled, we decided to describe it and give it a name so as to attract the attention of local botanists to it. It appears to be an attractive looking plant, with narrow glossy leaves, and plump, dark-coloured mushroom-headed, striate buds. The fruits are unknown. AN EISUINIIL Ye It has nearly the same shaped buds as Z. Clelandi, but they are not glaucous, and, moreover, they are fewer in the head. On the other hand, H Clelandi is a more or less glaucous plant, while £ platycorys is dark to light green throughout. 43 DESCRIPTION. CDV. E. Kingsmilli Maiden and Blakely, n.sp. Fretex val arbor parva, 12-20’ alta; foliis junioribus angusto-lanceolatis, 4-6 x 1 cm.; foliis maturis petiolatis, lanceolatis, tenuibus, venis paulo obscuris, 7-13 x 1:5-2:5 cm.; floribus axillaribus; filamentis flavis; alabastris plerumque triplicibus, in pedicellis longis, gracilibus, puniceis, rostratis, costis angustis 6-8; calycis tubo hemispherico; frtictu fere hemispherico, disco prominente. 2 x 3 cm. A shrub, or small tree, attaining a height of about 20 feet, with rough bark on the trunk, the upper branches being smooth. The crimson flower-buds give the tree a most ornamental appearance. Juvenile leaves (not seen in the earliest stage, 7.e., not quite opposite, but earlier than I have ever seen them in any form of £. pyriformis) narrow-lanceolate, say 4-6 cm. long and 1 em. in the widest part, with petioles of about 1 cm. Equally pale green on both sides, venation not conspicuous the secondary veins at an angle of about 45° with the midrib. Mature leayes apparently not different from those of the normal form of #. pyriformis. Flowers in an umbel usually of three, with a rounded or flattened peduncle of about 4 cm., with pedicels of half that length. Anthers as in Z. pyriformis. Buds with calyx-tubes nearly hemispherical and about 2 cm. in diameter.. The operculum continued into an almost pungent point. Both the calyx- tube and operculum covered with about eight thin prominent wings, about 4 mm. deep, giving the buds a remarkable appearance. The style about 1-5 cm. long, persistent, with the stigma of scarcely increased diameter. Anthers broad (Platyantherae) with broad lateral cells and a very small terminal gland. Dise at first concave, with a sharp raised inner ring flush with the top of the calyx-tube, which continues to grow upward, and at the same time expanding outwards, completely absorbing the concave cavity (noted in the early stages of its growth), until it reaches a height of 3-4 mm. above the level of the truncate calyx rim. Fruit nearly hemispherical, 2-5 cm. in diameter, with eight prominent wings ; these and the remainder of the calyx-tube (calycine rim) raised about the staminal ring. This bizarre and showy variety, which promises to be an interesting addition to gardens in semi-tropical districts of low rainfall, is named in honour of the Hon. William Kingsmill, M.L.C., who has for many years taken a most active interest in forestry matters in Western Australia, and who has frequently assisted my botanical work for that State. It is depicted in Part XLI, Plate 171, and described on p. 18. SYNONYM. E. pyviformis Turcz. var. Kingsmilli Maiden, It is a species quite distinct from EL. pyriformis. 44 RANGE. Confined to Western Australia, as far as we know. From the East Murchison to Lake Way. The type from close to a mining camp called Mount Keith, about 160 miles north of Leonora (W. Kingsmill, July, 1918). I subsequently received the following specimen from the National Herbarium, Melbourne (Prof. Ewart). ‘‘ Bush of 10 feet.” Upper Ashburton River (W. Cuthbertson), 1888. This is the variety Kingsmilli, but with peduncles and pedicels shorter, and fruits smaller than in the type. AFFINITIES. 1. With E. pyriformis Turcz. It has the same kind of costate buds and fruits as E. pyriformis, but they are considerably smaller and more deeply winged. There is also a great deal of difference in the habit of the two species, EH. Kingsmilli is sometimes a small tree, while Z. pyriformis is a low branching shrub. 2. With E. pachyphylla F.v.M., Part XLI, Plate 171, figs. 1a, 1b, 2, 3. This species appears to be its closest affinity, from which it differs in the larger and more prominently costate and pointed buds, with their long, slender pedicels, and larger and conspicuously winged fruits. It is also much taller, sometimes attaining a small tree 20 feet high, whereas H. pachyphylla is a small shrub not more than 6-10 feet high. 45 DESCRIPTION. CDVI. E. seyphocalyx (F.v.M.)

With E. incrassata Labill. At one time I expressed the opinion that it was near the L. incrassata type, but after carefully comparing it with the type, we agree that it isa species distinct from EL, incrassata, and from which it may be recognised by the narrow leaves, shorter ‘peduncles, cylindrical buds with very short pedicels, and with a much broader, shorter, The calyx is also more cylindroid-urceolate and longer and more obtuse operculum. The fruits are also more sessile and more barrel-shaped than the calyx of EF. incrassata. than ’he accepted type of EL. incrassata. 2. With E. dumosa A. Cunn. In botanical characters it has very little in common with this species, the buds and fruits being totally different to those of Z. dumosa. — 3. With E. platycorys Maiden and Blakely. This species appears to be its closest affinity, from which it differs in the much * longer buds, and narrower, non-striate operculum. 47 DESCRIPTION. CDVI, E. Helmsit Maiden and Blakely, n.sp.

It was collected on the Elder Exploring Expedition, near Victoria Desert, Western Australia, Camp 59 (R. Helms, No. 14, 23rd September, 1891). The type. There are two specimens of loose fruits from Victoria Desert, Camp 56, (R. Helms, Nos. 13 and 26, 19th September, 1891) which appear to be referable to this species. The fruits, however, are slightly smaller and are almost smooth. 65147 -H 48 AFFINITIES. 1. With E. scyphocalyx, u.sp. Maiden and Blakely. It differs from this species in the shape of the buds and fruits. The buds of E. scyphocalyx are somewhat cylindrical-campanulate to cylindroid-urceolate, and very shortly petiolate. The fruits are also urceolate and nearly sessile, not turbinate as in B. Helmsii. 2. With E. platycorys, n.sp. Maiden and Blakely. Both species have light green, narrow, shining leaves, but differ to a great extent in the shape of the buds, and particularly as regards the operculum, which is much broader and more dome-shaped in ZL. platycorys. The pedicels of the latter species are more abbreviated than those of the former. 49 DESCRIPTION. CDVII.

RANGE. It seems to be mainly confined to the somewhat arid interior of South Australia. The following are the localities :— South Australia.—Immana, near Ooldea (Professor J. B. Cleland, No. 67); Ooldea, said to be the Water Mallee (water in roots). Recognised by its yellow branchlets (same collector as above, Nos. 71, 72, and Ooldea Soak, No. 68); Mallee clumps. 15-25 feet ol high, with ragged or ribbony bark, growing in flats between sand hills (E. H. Ising); buds and fruits not mature. Sand Hill east of Ooldea, Transcontinental Railway Survey (H. Deane, June, 1909); Barton, ‘‘ Mallee ” (Professor J. B. Cleland, No. 66); 70 miles south-west of Camp 17, Elder Exploring Expedition (R. Ramsey, 17th July, 1891). Western Australia.—Comet Vale (J. H. Maiden, September, 1909). APFINIDIES: 1, With E. concinna Maiden and Blakely. There is a great deal of similarity in the buds of both species, but those of E. ochrophylla are less angular and the pedicels are much shorter. The fruit of the latter is also more mallet-shaped than that of the former. 2. With EF. striatacalyx W. V. Fitz. This is another species with striate buds, but the operculum is much longer and more pointed (as long or longer than the tube, original description) than that of E. ochrophylla, whilst the fruits are more campanulate, with a slightly different dise. E. striaticalyz is a much larger tree than E. ochrophylla, and it is also different in cortical characters. 3. With E. dumosa A. Cunn. It resembles this species somewhat in the striate buds, but they are much broader and more obtuse than those of EB. dumosa. The fruit also is larger and not campanulate like the fruit of H. dumosa. In the herbarium the leaves of EZ. dwmosa usually dry a slaty-brown colour, whereas the leaves of FE. ochrophylla dry a light yellow colour, and they are more glossy than those of E. dumosa. 52 DESCRIPTION.

Fruit campanulate, truncate, pedicellate, somewhat thin, three or four-celled, the short, deltoid acute valves enclosed or slightly exceeding the small annular capsular disc which is evolved from the staminal ring, 4-5 mm. long, 4-4-5 mm. in diameter. Named in honour of the late Mr. A. R. Crawford, of Moona Plains, Walcha, who was a keen student of our vegetation, and on several occasions brought under my notice (J.H.M.) the tree which now bears his name. It was my intention to figure it along with the other natural hybrids in Part LII, but it was overloooked. » RANGE. So far it has only been recorded from Moona Plains, Walcha, New South Wales, Mr. A. L. Crawford. In January, 1897, 1898, and in December, 1904, Mr. Crawford sent me specimens of this tree accompanied by the following note concerning it :—“ No. 1, a supposed hybrid between Eucalyptus saliqna ard E.acacieformis, Black Peppermint. Trunk rough from the ground to within 3-4 feet from tips of branches. The tree is about 70 feet high, and there are other young trees resembling it which are 20 or 30 feet high, perhaps seedlings of the large tree.” In May, 1909, I received further specimens and a letter from Mr. Crawford, which is as follows :—‘‘ You may remember me writing to you ve a hybrid Eucalyptus, H. saligna and E. acacieformis. I have found another 55 tree abeut 1} miles from here. It is a young tree, about 50 feet, with rough bark on stem and for some distance up the branches; where smooth, it is of a pinkish colour not so pronounced as the upper bark of Tristania conferta. It will not flower for some time yet, but I got a few fruits of it and also of FE. acaci@formis, but none of E. saligna, except afew ona dry twig. The hybrid is a much smaller tree than either of the parents; it exudes kino resembling that of 2. acacie@formis. I cut a piece of dead branch and it was paler than the wood of E. saligna. The timber of EZ. acacieformis is red.” AFFINITIES. 1, With E. saligna Sm. It seems to partake of the botanical characters of EZ. saligna, especially in the venation of the leaves, and somewhat in the fruit. The buds, however, are longer and more pointed than those of L. saligna, and the fruit is smaller and more shell-like, with very fine needle-like valves which sometimes protude slightly beyond the orifice. It however, differs from E£. saligna in the rough bark extending well out on the branches, and in the smooth bark being of a pinkish colour, not bluish as in LZ. saligna,; the leaves are also uniformly narrower than those of EZ. saligna. 2. With E. acacieformis Deane and Maiden. It seems to resemble LZ. acacteformis mainly in the rough bark which extends nearly all over the tree, and in the narrow leaves, small brownish buds, and in the very small fruits. 3. With FE. Deanei Maiden. It differs from L. Deanei in the shape of the buds and juvenile leaves, and also in the nature of the bark. 4. With £. quadrangulata Deane and Maiden. Its small fruits are not unlike those of £. quadrangulata, but the leaf venation is distinct from that species and the bark and timber are also very dissimilar. 65147—1 56 DESCRIPTION. CDXI.

Bauerlen), 12-15 feet; Little Tindery Mountain, Michelago (J. L. Boorman, January, 1909). Co-type AFFINITIES. 1. With E, Gunnii Hook. f. It appears to be a smaller tree than EZ. Gunnii, and more frequently Mallee-like in habit. The inflorescence of both species is somewhat alike, but the common peduncle of E. glaucescens is usually much shorter and broader than that of E. Gunnit, while the the buds of the latter are all pedicellate and the operculum is larger. The fruits of both species are also somewhat similar, but those of E. glaucescens are usually larger, closely sessile and more cylindrical than the fruits of B.Gunnii. The latter is confined to Tasmania. 2. With E. Perriniana F.v.M. Both are alpine species and have much in common as regards size, habit, glaucous- ness and inflorescence, but the connate juvenile leaves of EH. Perriniana readily separate it from those of E. glaucescens. There is also a marked difierence in the shape of the buds and fruits of both species, 58 2 DESCRIPHONS CDXIIL. EB.

It differs from the above species in the broadly ovate to broadly-lanceolate, thick, shining, different shaped leaves, in the very blunt buds, which are more globular, in the round, smooth operculum, and in the more hemispherical fruits. 2. With E. Johnstoni Maiden. It is closely allied to this species, and may be an alpine form with considerably reduced leaves and buds and smooth fruits. It has, also, the crenulate leaves of EL.

STRINGYBARK gracilis, 30-60 ’ alta, 6-18” diametro; cortice fibroso alte sulcato ; foliis junioribus alternatis, breviter petiolatis ovatis vel ovato-lanceolatis leniter hispidis, foliis maturis alternatis, petiolatis lanceolatis vel falcato-lanceolatis, acuminatis, crassis 6-16 x 2-4 em.; venis irregularibus; inflorescentia in umbellis axillaribus 7-14 flores; alabastris cylindraceis, obtusis; operculo calycis tubo pallidiore et breviore; fructu depresso-globoso, crasso, sessili; disco calycis tubo fere aequilongo, 8-10 x 5-6 mm.; valyis parvis inclusis vel leniter exsertis. A slender Stringybark, 30-60 feet high or more, 6-18 inches in diameter, with a deeply furrowed fibrous bark on trunk and main branches, the smaller branches almost smooth. In the early days the bark was largely used by the settlers for roofing. Juvenile leaves not seen in the earliest stage, alternate, ovate to ovate-lanceolate, slightly hispid,. 3-5-6 em. long, 2-3 em. broad, petioles very short; internodes slightly hairy. Intermediate leayes alternate, very shortly petiolate, broadly elliptical to obliquely lanceolate, the broader ones acuminate, thin, glossy on the upper surface, dull and much paler beneath, 5-11 cm. x 2-5-5 em.; venation very fine, the lateral veins rather numerous, diverging at an angle of 40-50° to the midrib, which is yery conspicuous beneath; intramarginal vein distant from the edge. Mature leayes alternate, petiolate, lanceolate to faleate and obliquely lanceolate, acuminate, moderately thick, 6-16 em. x 2-4 cm.; venation somewhat irregular, the lateral veins distant, radiating at an angle of 40-45° to the midrib; intramarginal vein close to the edge. Inflorescence in axillary umbels of 7-14 flowers, the peduncle slender, slightly compressed, 10-12 mm. long. Buds cylindrical, blunt, the operculum much paler and slightly shorter than the brownish somewhat elongated calyx-tube, 6 mm. long, 3-5 mm. in diameter. Anthers small, reniform with a small, terminal gland. : Fruit depressed globular, closely sessile, thick, the smooth reddish disc nearly as deep as the calycine portion, 8-10 x 5-6 mm.; valves usually four, very small, enclosed or slightly exsert. Named in honour of Miss Ann Tindal, of Ramornie, Clarence River, who, for a number of years, has taken a keen interest in the flora of the district. RANGE. Denman (W. Heron, January, 1909); near Copmanhurst at the head of the salt water, Clarence River; Orara River near Ramornie Meat Works; both localities are in New South Wales (W. F. Blakely and D. W. C. Shiress, 28th July, 1922). The fruits of the Copmanhurst specimen are slightly larger than those from the Orara. AFFINITIES. 1. With E. laevopinea R. T. Baker. It differs from HL. levopinea mainly in the smaller, different shaped buds and in the sessile, depressed-globular fruits. 62 2. With E. agglomerata Maiden. This species does not appear to extend to the Upper Clarence, but it resembles E.. Tindale in the general appearance of the bark and habit, but seems to differ from it in the juvenile leaves, in the shape of the buds, and to a lesser extent in the fruit. The oil is also different. The juvenile leaves of £. Tindale have a rather pleasant geranium- like odour, those of EL. agglomerata are somewhat rank. 3. With E. Wilkinsoniana R. T. Baker. The habit and general appearance of both trees are somewhat similar; the buds, however, of L. Tindale are moxe cylindrical and more shortly petiolate than those of EL. Wilkinsoniana, while the fruits of the former are sessile and thicker than those of the latter. There is perhaps very little difference in the oil of both species, as they appear to possess almost the same odour; if anything, the odour of HL. Tindale is not quite so strong as that of F. Wilkinsonianz. The timber has not been examined 63 DESCRIPTION. CDXVI. E. Wilkinsoniana R. T. Baker. Proce. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., xxv, 678 (1900), with a figure of a fruit on Plate XLVI, fig. 2. (Syn. £. hemastoma var. F.v.M., “* Eucalyptographia ” Dec.I1;* E. levopinea var. minor). In Part VITI, p. 221 of the present work I stated that I looked upon £. Wilkinsoniana R. T. Baker and £. nigra R. T. Baker as being inseparable from EF. eugenioides on the one hand, and from #. Muelleriana on the other. Recent investigations have shown that I was in error, and I now admit both are valid species. The following is the original description :— A medium-sized tree with a thin, compressed Stringybark, not furrowed. Sucker leaves lanceolate, falcate, generally under 3 inches long and under 6 lines wide, oblique, thin, venation oblique, parallel, distant; marginal vein removed from the edge. Leaves of mature trecs similar to sucker-leaves, only larger. Flowers in axillary peduncles of about 6 lines long. Calyx small, 1 line long, 2 lines is diameter ; pedicel about 1 line. Operculum small, hemispherical, acuminate; outer stamens apparently sterile; anthers kidney-shaped. Ovary flat-topped. Fruit hemispherical, 5 lines in diameter, rim thick, red; valves slightly exserted, acute. Habitat.—Dromedary Mountain (C. S. Wilkinson, F.G.S.); Colombo (W. Bauerlen); Barber’s Creek (H. Rumsey); Sutton Forest (R. T. Baker). This is the “ Stringybark” variety of EZ. hemastoma Sm. mentioned by Baron von Mueller in his “ Eucalyptographia ’’ under that species. It was first observed in this colony by the late Government Geologist, Mr. C. S. Wilkinson, F.G.S., at Dromedary Mountain, at an elevation of 1,500 fect above sea level, and named for him by Mueller as stated above. Timber pale-coloured, very hard, close-grained, heavy. In transverse and compression tests it stands higher than that of any of the Stringybarks above enumerated. It is evidently an excellent timber and is strongly recommended for forest conservation.

The bark and timber ally it to E. eugeniordes, ‘* White Stringybark, botanical sequence it is placed next to that species (original description). 99 and in 2. With E. l@vopinea R. T. Baker. , The oil resembles that of EZ. Jevopinea Baker, but no other characters connect it with that species. The red rim of the fruits has evidently been the cause of the misplacing of this, but it is now well known that this is a character common to a number of Eucalypts. It is a feature quite absent from £. le@vopinea Baker, in fact, the fruits of the two species are so very different that the trees could not be synonymised with any degree of correctness in specific naming. The bark, leaves, venation and timber of these trees also differ. E. levopinea Baker has a hard, compact bark right out to the branchlets, whilst this tree has a light-coloured, loose, stringybark, not extending out to the limbs. It is quite distinct in specific characters from the two Stringybarks described in this paper, viz., E. mgra and E. umbra. (Original description). 65 DESCRIPTION. ? CDXVIT, EF. nigra R. T. Baker. Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S.W., xxv, p. 689 (1900) with Plate XLVI, fig. 3. A TALL tree with a black stringy bark. Leaves lanceolate, scarcely falcate, occasionally oblique, mostly under 4 inches long, and under. 1 inch wide, of a dull green colour; venation only faintly marked on the upper surface, but very distinct on the lower; lateral veins oblique, distant; intramarginal vein removed from the edge. Peduneles axillary, short, under 4 lines, bearing a cluster of from 8-12 small flowers. Calyx hemispherical, under 2 lines in diameter, on a short pedicel. Operculum hemispherical, acuminate, about 14 lines long when mature. Ovary flat-topped. Anthers very small, parallel, filaments very slender. Fruits about 4 lines in diameter, hemispherical to pilular, rim variable, thin or truncate, and even domed occasionally; valves slightly exserted. Habitat.—Richmond River district (W. Bauerlen);. Cook’s River, Sydney (H. G. Smith). From £. Wilkinsoniana Baker and E. macrorrhyncha F.v.M. it differs in fruits, timber and chemical constituents of the oil. From the Stringybark, Z. wmbra Baker, of this paper it differs in the shape of the sucker leaves and chemical constituents of the oil, although the immature fruits of these species are somewhat similar. E. eugenioides Sieb. and EF. capitellata Sm. approach each other very closely in morphological characters, and there often seems to be a gradation between the two, but, nevertheless, the two species are quite distinct; and so in this, although there also appears some similarity in the fruits of this species and £. eugenioides, yet the two differ in too many characters to be the same species. The sucker leaves are not unlike those of E. capitellata, whilst the buds are similar to those of E. eugenioides. The fruits approach somewhat in shape those of the latter species, with which it has probably been confounded in the past when determined on dried specimens. Ifit were not for the distinctive character of the timber and oil, I should certainly have made it a variety of H. ewgenioides, but the former product is of too poor a character to be associated. with so excellent a timber as that yielded-by White Stringybark, EZ. ewgenioides. The oil also differentiates it entirely from that species. On the sum of the above differences it was decided to give the tree specific rank, and botanically it is placed next to E. dextropinea Baker (E. Muelleriana Howitt), from which it differs in the shape of the fruits, bark, leaves and chemical constitutents. From E. levopinea IBRD it differs in the shape of the fruits, quality of timber and constituents of the oil. Timber.—Of a dark-brown colour (hence the specific name), much affected with borers and not valued for durability by timber-getters and others interested in the trade. Oil.—Yield very small, only 34 oz. from 534 lb. of leaves, in fact, too small to make a fractional distillation. It has thus the smallest yield of the Stringybarks next to E. capitellata (H. G. Smith). Illustrations.—It is figured in Part VIII, Plate 38, under HZ. Muelleriana Howitt; and allies, and the following figures are referable to it :— Fig. 13, Fruits, Harding’s Mill, near Glen Innes, New South Wales (H. Deane).

In “ Research on Eucalyptus ” Mr. Baker depicts two fruits on p. 53, with the following comment :—“‘ The fruits are very much like those of EB. eugenioides.” 46 RANGE. The localities quoted by Mr. Baker in “ Research on the Eucalyptus” (2nd edition), p. 53, are:—Richmond River district, Cook’s River, Sydney, Blackheath, New South Wales. The following specimens in the National Herbarium, Sydney, appear to be referable to it :— New South Wales, Kanimbla Valley, Lowther-road (A. H. 8. Lucas and J.H.M.); Harding’s Mill near Glen Innes (H. Deane); ‘“ Stringybark,” Parish Babzil, County Rouse, Casino (E. G. McLean); Black Stringybark, Woodburn, Richmond River (W. Bauerlen).. Sent to me by Mr. Baker as typical. NB SUNOS These are discussed by the author in the original description, but at the same time I would like to draw attention to the fact that many specimens of buds and fruits of typical H. eugenioides approach the type of EF. nigra, and on the whole they accentuate the close relationship of the two species. And, notwithstanding the author’s remarks in reference to the affinity of E. nigra with EL. eugenioides and EL. Wilkinsoniana, there is much field work to be done before one can definitely state what the real differences are between them. The outstanding difference appears to be in the broad suckers of E. nigra in contradistinction to those of its allies. 67 EXPLANATION OF PLATES 288-291. PLATE 288. EF. Bucknelli Cambage. la.

Mueller appears to have been the first to describe Eucalyptus seedlings. In his Fragmenta, vii, 42, he describes those of thirty-five species on the following plan :— “ Eucalyptus amygdalina. Caulix scabridus, teretiusculus, folia opposita, demum sparsa, lanceolato-linearia, sessilia, mox apice acutata, basi cordata.” He does not mention the cotyledons in so many words, though in some cases it is evident that he includes a description of them. His cautious opening and closing statements are to the following effect :— (a) Eucalyptus plants raised from the seed in the first year of life often show particular diversities not only in species but in varieties. (b) These brief notes concerning plants raised from seeds in a garden which are easily confused, and in nature difficultly matched with the maternal branch, need confirmation. 1891. Howitt. (Trans. Roy. Soc. Vict., 11, 92) says (of Gippsland eucalypts) (p. 92): “ Having now referred to the various types of the Stringybark groups, it is convenient to mention the distinctions between their seedlings and saplings.” (I will only take extracts concerning seedlings at present, as his remarks ve what he calls “ saplings ” I will refer to under Intermediate Leaves.) p. 92. “The seedlings of B. piperita, BH. eugenioides, and EL. capitellata are beset on stems and leaf- stalks with numerous tufts of hairs, which also line the edges of the leaves. The leaves themselves are more or less hairy, except in that form of £. capitellata growing in the mountains, as at Osler’s Creek, where they are smooth (I have Howitt’s original specimens, and have referred them to EH. Bazteri). The seedling leaves of FE. piperita, BE. eugeniordes, and E. capitellata are at first ovate and opposed, but in the former I have often observed them to be ovate-pointed, or even lanceolar and smaller than those of LZ, capitellata, which are always ovate. In none of the species are the leaves shiny.” “Tn E.macrorrhyncha the seedlings are also more or less beset with tufts of hairs (p. 93), giving the stem a rough appearance, but in a less degree than the lastnamed species. The leaves, at first opposed, are lanceolar in form and slightly shiny.” “ The seedlings of 2. Muelleriana are as characteristic as those of any other species known to me. The stem and stalklets are slightly tufted with hairs, or are even smooth, the leaves rather long, lanceolar; pointed and opposed throughout, even in seedlings of a foot or more in height, while their extremely shiny upper surface distinguishes this form from all other species of this group, being more marked even than in EB. obliqua, from which the persistent opposition of the leaves readily distinguishes it.” p. 95. “ The seedlings of #. obliqua are usually free from hairs, but are very commonly warty, and the leaves are lanceolar, shining on one side, and thinner in texture than those of E. macrorrhyncha. They become scattered somewhat sooner than those of H. macrorrhyncha, and very much sooner than those of E. Muelleriana, and soon show the marked unequalsidedness which is so characteristic of this tree,” 116 1898. J. G. Luehmann. One of the few references concerning Eucalyptus seedlings is— “ There is one feature which will, probably, throw more light upon the limits of species as well as their affinities, with which we are not yet sufficiently acquainted; this is the character of the seedlings. I venture to express a hope that in the near future one of our botanic gardens will undertake the investigation of the subject, which reyuires not only great knowledge and care, but also certain means that are only at the command of few people.” (Rep. Aust. Assoc. Adv. Science, vii, 524.) 1902. In A. J. McClatchie’s work (U.S. Department of Agriculture; Bureau of Forestry, Bulletin No. 35) we have the most extensive series of photographs of seedlings of species of Eucalyptus known to me. There are thirty-two species on eight plates, but only the names are given, together with a few notes at p. 84. One species is shown in each picture, and they are fair-sized plants. 1914. Cuthbert Hall, M.D. “ The Evolution of the Eucalypts in relation to the Cotyledons and Seedlings,” Proc. Linn. Soc., N.S.W., xxxix, 473, with numerous plates consisting of several small seedlings (one for each species) to a plate (1914). The most important research on the subject at the date of publication. He refers to the work of Lubbock in this connection, and also to that of Mueller, which he rightly criticises, I think, the errors of nomenclature being probably caused by Mueller’s dependence on outside nurserymen, and because of the state of Eucalyptus nomenclature at the time. Dr. Hall’s tropical seedlings are sometimes doubtful; I received the seeds before he did, and I know their history. Some of the figures in the plates are extremely difficult to see and to compare, since they are at all angles, and some are even reversed. The quaint Bakerian nomenclature is adopted without synonyms. Maiden, J. H. My own work on the seedlings has been continuously in progress since 1899, and could not have been carried out without the co-operation of Miss Margaret Flockton, the artist of the Botanic Gardens, Sydney. I am very much indebted to the late and present Superintendents of the Botanic Gardens, Messrs. George Harwood and EH. N. Ward, and Messrs. Sydney Smith and Ralph Tate, Propagators. Selections from Miss Flockton’s beautiful coloured drawings, representing the seedlings . In all stages, have been from time to time shown before Sydney Scientific Societies since 1904, but I have abstained from publishing them, for the same reason which has caused me to abstain from publishing my notes on other phases of the Eucalyptus question— from a desire to generalise from material from as large a number of species as possible. Of most species large numbers of individuals were raised, and from as many localities as possible. Anyone who has had horticultural experience knows that while in a pan of seedlings no two seedlings are precisely alike, and extreme forms may show a good deal of variation, it is for that reason risky to make deductions except on a large number of individuals. This applies to hypocotyl, cotyledons, and leaves of all kinds—they all vary. Seedlings from the same capsule vary. 117 Here is the form adopted throughout the whole of the research. The spaces have been reduced in the copy :— BOTANIC GARDENS, SYDNEY. Evucatyptus SEEDLINGS.

Seed of varying ages. 2. Seed from a vigorous or a debilitated tree. 3. Seedlings subjected to varying treatment, e.g., richer or poorer, well or inferior- drained soil; crowded and.drawn up to the light, whether grown in the open under severer conditions. One photograph of a seedling cannot show all the stages. In the beautiful water-colour drawings to which I have made reference, several drawings of each have usually been made, as a compromise. The botanists of the future, with adequate endowments, will make very many more, and will even call in the aid of the cinemato- graph. Unless there was a strong reason to the contrary, I have not raised a seedling unless I had the corresponding botanical material to compare with that of the progeny. It is just as necessary to know the absolute origin of the seed from which a seedling is raised as it is for the engineer or surveyor to know his base-line. I do not say that all seeds of imperfectly ascertained origin are valueless, but they have the defect that we have imperfect data concerning them, and therefore cannot answer questions as to origin. And in an inquiry on phytogenetic lines, the correctness of our data is especially important. 118 2. THEIR HORTICULTURAL VALUE. The value of Eucalypts for purely horticultural purposes has not yet been fully ascertained. In the countries of Northern Europe, the glaucousness and comparative hardiness of FL. globulus and HL. Maideni are freely taken advantage of in shrubberies, and in temporary ornamental plantings in the open air during the warmer months, since they make very striking objects when young. Afterwards they become straggly> and also suffer from the effects of winters. Such species as EL. Planchoniana and E. eximia, which require a warmer climate (say Mediterranean conditions) have a totally different appearance, and, when young, say up to 15 feet high, furnish charming substitutes for such plants as the Copper Beech and Prunus Pissardi. They are not so compact as these small trees, and their young coloured leaves are succeeded by green ones. The young trees are quaintly straggly, and with sparse, pendulous, long, dull-green foliage, giving them an artistic appearance. I would suggest that more attention be given to the horticultural side of Eucalyptus. Nurserymen will find that the industry will, however, never get a firm hold until there is a wider knowledge of seedlings. To order a certain species, and to be supplied with an unmeritorious substitute (as I have often known to be the case) may cause a would-be student of the genus to lose interest in these distinctly Australian plants. k 3. VALUE OF A KNOWLEDGE (OF SEEDLINGS 10) THE PORESTER; “NURSERYMAN, ANB GARDENER. It may be truly said that the appearance of the Eucalyptus seedling is almost unknown to the nurseryman, whether he grows plants for the forester, or for the gardener responsible for private or public gardens and parks, or for street-planting. Apart from the inherent difficulty of the subject (and my researches are but an attempt to stimulate inquiry), the forester knows, or should know, that the recognition of seedlings in a forest is attended with great difficulty, and requires exercise of all the caution with which he has been endowed. In a pure forest, correct determination may be simple, but the tyro knows that because a seedling has germinated at the foot of a tree, that that tree may not necessarily be its parent. We know that seeds may be scattered by the wind, transported by rain-waters, or in the manure of herbivora. 119 Until we know the similarities, or dissimilarities, of seedlings, we shall continue to stumble into the pitfalls which abound. I speak feelingly, as I have had hundreds of times to destroy material brought to me in perfectly good faith, and on which I thought I could rely. I know something of the difficulties of foresters in California and Florida, Brazil, Italy, Algiers, India, and other countries, in getting correctly named seed. The fact that recognition of seedlings is so wrapped up with matters of pounds, shillings, and pence, is a reason why I should very much like to have reproduced all the excellent drawings of seedlings which have been made under my direction, and not an imperfect selection of them. 4, DRAWINGS AND THEIR SCHEDULES, Below I attach copies of the two printed forms which were filled in in regard to all seedlings at the times the coloured drawings were made. The greatest care has been taken to secure the botanical correctness of the seeds, without which the experiments would, in most cases, be useless. The three-coloured process drawings (for which I am indebted to the kindness of the Hon. Captain Frank Chaffey, Minister for Agriculture) only make one long for more. But they are costly, and so I have had to omit the vast majority of the large seedlings, either because of their size as plants, or because they have individually large leaves. I hope that the public finances will soon permit the reproduction of these omitted drawings, in the interests of science. Not only have most of the larger drawings been omitted, but as. regards these and many others, there have been omissions which destroy the continuity of the life-history of individual species. Room could not be found for a single drawing whatever of some species. The trouble arises, of course, because of the magnitude of the genus, and I have endeavoured to make the best selection with the limited space available. The vast majority of the coloured drawings were made by Miss Margaret Flockton, the artist to whom this work owes so much, Owing to pressure of work in other directions, and large influx of seedlings, she received assistance from Miss Phyllis Clarke during March, 1918, and at other times, and from Miss Ethel King from March, 1919, to August, 1923, and the work of both these artists deserves the highest credit. 33939B 120 Following is the printed matter of the two forms, each of which is of foolscap size :-— BOTANIC GARDENS, SYDNEY.

Miss Flockton’s Notes. a. Oil-glands. In a few cases a roughened or glandular appearance has been attributed to oil- glands, but this may not have been scientifically ascertained. Oil-glands are more or less plentiful in most parts of every Eucalyptus plant, and the slight asperities in seedlings are usually to be attributed to stellate and other hairs. b. Hairs. These are more or less distributed in seedlings, as may be noted under the descriptions. Examples will be found under Renanthere, Small Cotyledons (Groups 1 and 2), Bisecte (Group 15). See also Part LVI, p. 321. c. Tubercular Gro wths. The subject has been touched upon at Part XLIX, p. 283. It is probable that they may make their appearance in all species, given favourable conditions, but they have been observed, naturally very small, in the axils of the cotyledonary leaves of very many species, perhaps all. The species of bacteria concerned in the infections, the shapes, &c., of the resulting growths, and other matters, will form the subjects of further inquiry by a bacteriologist, 122 d. Colour, During the years, the terms used by the artist and botanist for the anthocyanin colours of hypocotyl, cotyledon, &c., have varied. No tint should have been quoted except with quotation of a standard reference-work on colours. That has been quite out of the question with the time at my disposal, and doubtless some future student will carefully record these colours, and draw conclusions from his researches. In the notes on seedlings, red sometimes means crimson and pink, and there are doubtless other synonyms. Purple is also a term which covers ‘much variation. (Some observations on the colours of the young shoots, or “ young foliage,” will be found at Part LVI, p. 331.) The undersurface of the cotyledons (cotyledonary leaf) varies in colour according to local conditions, e.g., time of year, moisture, soil. This is probably true of other parts of the seedling. In a number of cases the colours in seedlings of the same species (or reputed to be such) from different localities are reported to be uniform; in some a difference is reported, but what interpretation is to be put on these reputed differences, if any, 1s a matter for further observation. e. Glaucescence. The seedings of some species, other than those whose mature leaves are glaucous, display glaucousness in varying degrees. Sometimes the glaucousness is hard to detect, as it may shade into paleness in which no waxy surface is evident to the eye. The term sub-glaucous is an intermediate one, and somewhat vague. For references to glaucescence in both young and mature foliage, see Part LVI, p. 328. f. Measurements. These have been rarely given. Lubbock gives them in the few species he examined, but as I submit coloured drawings (and hope to reproduce more), I consider they will afford sufficient data for the present. The sizes of the component parts of seedlings actually given are those of pot- grown ones. Speaking generally, it seems to be a fact that those grown in the open (i.e., naturally grown) are larger; but I have not made a rigid series of comparisons. The whole question of measurements could form the subject of a useful research. I have given localities or numbers after a description, so that the origin of the seedlings can be traced. It is purely a herbarium memo. Where there are no such indications, only one locality is known for the species. a li a 128 One reason why these records are incomplete is that, during a generation, seedlings have disappeared at various stages through accident, climatic changes, attacks by insects and animals, and the various happenings of a nursery. In one case,-a larger number disappeared, one knows not where; they were probably distributed with others for some public purpose. In some cases seeds produced weakly plants; in others, the quantity was so very small as not to permit a second sowing. But the work has been begun, and will go on. While there have been very many advantages in conducting these seedling researches in the nursery of a public institution, I have many a time sighed for the greater security and privacy of a private garden, 6. NOTES ON THE EMBRYO. (Including notes on Cotyledons, &c., which have been dealt with under separate headings.) “ We must first of all distinguish between seed-leaves and shoot-leaves, with regard to their point of origin from the stem. The former only occurs in the embryo, the latter in all those structures comprised under the term “ shoot.” The embryo which has developed from the fertilized egg-cell in the embryo-sac presents in many instances a tissue-body in which as yet no trace can be recognised of a-differentiation into stem and leaf, or rather the embryo, when it leaves the fruit-capsule, is like a stem in which all indication of leaves is absent. 3 “Tn the majority of instances, however, a distinct ditferentiation can be recognised in the embryo hidden in the seed, and one or two leaves may be seen issuing from the tissue-mass which forms the axis of the embryo. These are the seed-leaves or cotyledons. “The short axis or stem-portion from which the seed-leaves originate, and which looks like the pedestal of the cotyledons, is called the hypocotyl. “At one end of the hypocotyl a tissue-mass is developed, termed the radicle, at the opposite end a tissue-mass named the plumule. “The plumule is situated above the place where the cotyledon or pair of cotyledons issued from the hypocotyl. It is the rudiment of a new portion of the stem, which is situated above the cotyledons, and is called the epicotyl. “The epicotyl thus originates from the apex of the hypocotyl, and the boundary between these two portions of the stem is the place of origin of the cotyledon, or pair of cotyledons.” (Kerner and Oliver, i, 596.) 124 Speaking of the embryo in Eucalyptus, Bentham says: “Embryo with broad cordate 2-lobed or bipartite cotyledons, folded over the straight radicle, but otherwise flat.” (B.Fl., i, 185.) “The embryo in Eucalyptus appears always to have the cotyledons folded over the radicle, but varies much in the shape of the cotyledons, very broad or rather narrow, entire, cordate, 2-lobed or 2-partite, and in the comparative length of the radicle, and these differences are very likely of specific constancy; but there are but two or three species in which I have been able to examine the embryo taken from several specimens, and not many where I have had perfect seeds enough to spare more than one or even a single one for dissection. I have, therefore, thought it very unsafe to rely upon any of the modifications observed for specific distinction.” (p. 188.) Mueller (“ Eucalyptographia ’’) merely says: “Embryo of amygdaline con- sistence,” and figures it as follows :— E. buprestium, 10 (in situ); 11, cotyledons slightly unfolded, laying free part of the radicle; 12, transverse section of embryo. E. calophylla, 11, embryo; 12, cotyledons unfolded ; 13, transverse section of embryo. E. capitellata, 10, embryo; 11, the same uncoiled. E. cladocalyx (corynocalyx), 10, embryo; 11, the same unfolded. E. cosmophylla, 11, embryo in its natural position; 12, transverse section of an embryo; 13, embryo, with cotyledons unfolded. E. crebra, 10, embryo. #. diversicolor, 13, embryo; 14, cotyledons unfolded, to exhibit the radicle. E. erythrocorys, 10, embryo. E. ficifolia, 11, embryo in situ; 12, embryo uncoiled; 13, transverse section of embryo. E. gamophylla, 11, 12, 13, as in FL. ficifolea. E. globulus, 11, 12, 13, as in LE. ficifolia. E. goniocalyx, 11, embryo. E. leucozylon, 13, embryo. E. marginata, 11, embryo in situ; 12, embryo uncoiled. E. megacarpa, 12, embryo in situ; 13, cotyledons partly spread out, to exhibit the radicle; 14, transverse section of embryo. E. mimiata, 10, embryo in situ; 11, side view of cotyledons; 12, transverse section of embryo. E. obliqua, 10, embryo; 11, the same partly uncoiled. E. Steberiana, 11, embryo uncoiled; 12, embryo in its natural position. E. Watsoniana, 11, embryo in situ; 12, transverse section of the same; 13, embryo unfolded, to show the cotyledons and radicle. Lubbock “* On Seedlings,” (1892, p. 524) says: “ The embryos of species of Eucalyptus coming under my notice are remarkable for the way in which the cotyledons are deflexed and become folded or coiled round the radicle. The latter is straight in E. globulus (fig. 338, not reproduced), as are the petioles for part of their length, while the upper portion is bent at right angles to reach the base of the cotyledons. The whole length of the seed is occupied by the tadicle, the straight portion of the petioles, and the real length of the cotyledons, which is not great. The 125 size of the latter, and their lobed appearance is due to their being deflexed and growing in a lateral direction till they reach the base of the seed, while their apical edge becomes coiled round the radicle. The middle portion through which the midrib runs cannot coil round the radicle, and is therefore short, thus giving tise to the apical sinus. This will be better understood by reference to the seedlings. A closely similar or identival case occurs in #. maryinata, a transverse section of which shows the manner of coiling round the radicle. Although the section showing the coil is transverse to the seed, it is really through the longitudinal plane of the cotyledons. #. stellulata (fig. 8341, not reproduced) has very mach smaller and narrower seeds, and the coiling is therefore less extensive. The radicle is club-shaped, thickest at the » point, and central to the cotyledons. He describes at length the embryo of two species: EB. globulus : “* Straight, or nearly so, fleshy, colourless, occupying the whole interior of the seed, and conforming to it in general outline; cotyledons broader than long, deflexed and convolute over the tradicle, which the lobes equal in length; half of one cotyledon lies over half of the other, and consequently only one-half of each cotyledon lies against the testa; radicle long, stout, fleshy, truncate, at the end where it lies against the testa, otherwise wholly enclosed by the longitudinally coiled cotyledons, parallel with the axis and consequently some distance from the hilum.” (i, 530, with fig.) E. stellulata ; ‘* Straight, filling the interior of the seed, colourless; cotyledons transversely oblong convolute and folded round the radicle; radicle long, stout, truncate at the apex, occupying the centre of the seed and enveloped by the cotyledons.” (p. 532.) Dr. Cuthbert Hall in Proc. Linn. Soc., N.S.W., xxxix, 476, 1914, says: “ Embryo.—As endosperm is not present, the form of the embryo depends on the shape, size and manner of folding of the cotyledons. The length of the petioles in the embryo depends on the distance from the junction of lamina and petiole to the superior pole of the radicle; and, in most species, is probably fairly short before germination. In Z£. citriodora and E. maculata, the cotyledons are almost sessile. In E. marginata, the hypocotyl is subterranean, and the failure of this to elongate, by growth in germination, is compensated for by the great elongation by growth of the petioles, so as to raise the lamine well above the ground. A similar condition obtains in Angophora cordifolia, where the hypocotyl is short, and the petioles long. ZH. calophylla and E. Todtiana also have fairly long petioles.” See also the subject of the folding of the cotyledons in the embryo at p. 518, and compare with Lubbock’s remarks already quoted above. I had prepared some notes, but found that the subject required a series of enlarged drawings of embryos, which Miss Flockton has had no time to do. I commend the subject to the attention of a student. 126 a. Historical. Cotyledones (sic.) broad, much compressed, somewhat folded, undivided or bilobed, curved around the cylindrical straight erect radicle.” (‘‘ Hucalyptographia,”’ Preface.) 1866. Bentham (B. FI., iii) rarely refers to the Cotyledon. Exceptions are— “ Embryo with broad cordate 2-lobed or bipartite cotyledons, folded over the straight radicle, but otherwise flat.” (p. 185.) ae varies much in the shape of the cotyledons, very broad or rather narrow, entire, cordate, 2-lobed or 2-partite . . .” (p. 188.) One of the few specific references is under L. cornuta, “‘ Cotyledons of the seeds very deeply lobed almost 2-partite.” 1879-84. Mueller, in “ Kucalyptographia,” under H. cornuta, figures twenty- seven species of seedlings “ to exhibit mainly the cotyledonary leaves.” The seedlings are quite small, and as a rule also depict the first pair of leaves after the cotyledons. That of H. sepuleralis F.v.M. is figured on its own plate, and is the only seedling so found. Taken as a whole, the drawings of the seedlings are not quite satisfactory. The species depicted under E. cornuta are as follows :— E. alpina. _ E. leucoxylon. E. amygdalina. E. macrocarpa. E. botryoides. E. marginata. E. calophylla. E. melliodora. E. cornuta. E. obliqua. E. corymbosa. E. pilularis. E. cosmophylla. E. piperita. E. crebra. E. rostrata. E. diversicolor. E. saligna. E. gamophylla. E. siderophloia. E. globulus. E. Sieberiana. E. goniocalyx. E, stricta. E. Gunnii. E. Stuartiana. E. hemiphloia. The next reference in order of date, if not actually prior to Mueller’s, is as follows :— 1883. Naudin, of which I offer a translation :— “Tn all species of Eucalyptus the cotyledons have a common physiognomy, which makes them easily recognised. They are always petiolate and opposite, their most habitual form is that of a heart, broader than long, having the two lobes separated by a hollowing more or less deep. In some species they are almost orbicular and entire, in others the median hollowing descends almost to the base of the limb which is thus also divided into two straight and diverging lobes. These different modifications may help in the recognition of some species, however, it is not a criterion sufficiently constant and sure to be trusted in every case.”’ (Naudin, i, 346, 1883.) In other words, he issues a warning as to variation in cotyledons, a 127 .1892. Lubbock. “ Most of the species of Eucalyptus observed have characters in common in the form of the cotyledons: They are transversely oblong, with or without a shallow sinus at the apex, with a short midrib terminating in the sinus, and a longer lateral nerve running along the centre of the lateral lobes. They are practically therefore trinerved; but the whole of the venation is sometimes obscure or indiscernible owing to the opacity of the cotyledons. The real apex of the latter is in the notch; and the length of the lateral lobes, together with the origin of the sinus is explained below. Species agreeing in the main with the above particulars are EZ. globulus (fig. 339), E. rostrata, E. cordata, E. leucovylon (fig. 340), and E. stellulata. A slight modification of the above is seen in E. coccifera having small, obcordate cotyledons with a cuneate base. A greatly exaggerated form is met with in E. occidentalis (fig. 342), where the lateral lobes are ascending or suberect so as to give the cotyledons a furcate appearance strongly resembling those of Pentapetes puniceus (see fig. 219, not reproduced) amongst the Sterculiacee, with similar venation. The cotyledons of £. ficifolia are transversely oblong-reniform, with a moderately deep notch at the base, a very shallow apical sinus, the three nerves copiously branched, and long ascending petioles. On the whole, they may be compared to those of a Geranium. The long petioles show a transition to a still more remarkable type occurring in £. marginata (fig. 343, not reproduced), in which the hypocotyl is subterranean and extremely short, while this deficiency is compensated for by the length of the petioles. The lamina is obcordate, cuneate and trinerved, resembling a Brassica. A striking departure from the common type oceurs in #. calophylla (fig. 344, not reproduced) having reniform-orbicular, incipiently emarginate, goliaceous cotyledons of great size. The three nerves are copiously branched, the lateral ones again having three main divisions.’ (Lubbock, i, 526.) A similar or identical case occurs in £. marginata, a transverse section of which shows the manner of coiling round the radicle. Although the section showing the coil is transverse to the seed, it is really through the longitudinal plane of the cotyledons. £. stellulata (fig. 341) has very much smaller and narrower seeds, and the coiling is therefore less extensive. The radicle is club-shaped, thickest at the poimt, and central to the cotyledons.’ (Lubbock, “‘ On Seedlings,” i, 524.) The descriptions he gives in connection with the cotyledons are fuller than those of any previous author, and include :— E. globulus, deeply bifid, lobes obovate-oblong, diverging (with fig.). EL. rostrata, small transversely oblong, obtuse, entire, sometimes almost cordate at the base. . cordata, very similar to those of H. rostrata, shallowly emarginate. . leucoxylon, as in EL. rostrata, but truncate at the end, or sometimes possessing a small apical tooth (with fig.). . stellulata, transversely oblong. . coccifera, shortly stalked, obcordate, cuneate at base, retuse at apex. . occidentalis, deeply bifid, petiolate, lobes oblong, narrow obtuse (with fig.). . ficifolia, reniform, obtuse, entire or slightly emarginate, cordate at the base. . marginata, sub-rotund or transversely oblong, obtuse, emarginate, asymmetrical petiolate (with fig.). E., calophylla, \arge foliaceous, reniform-orbicular, petiolate, blunt, entire except at the base or incipiently emarginate (with fig.). Bees & 1894, Kerner and Oliver in 1894 (in translation, presumably earlier in the original) use the term bisected for the cotyledons of certain species of Eucalyptus, 7.e., No. 15 of fig. 148 (i, 621) for HL. orientalis (a slip for occidentalis). No. 16 of the same figure is a reniform cotyledon of EF. coriaceous (coriacea), but the word reniform is not used. 83939—C 128 1914. Then follows an important paper by Dr. Cuthbert Hall, “ The Evolution of the Eucalypts in relation to the Cotyledons and Seedlings ’”’ (Proc. Linn. Soc., N.S.W., XXX1Xx, 473, with thirty-two plates). The paper takes cognizance of nearly 150 species, and the cotyledons are attached to the seedlings, which are reproduced by photography, and naturally vary in sharpness with the age of the seedlings. Each seedling (species) is represented by one photograph. They are difficult to compare because the figures are crowded on the plates at various angles, and some are even reversed. 1899 onwards. My own seedling work began seriously in 1899, and has been uninterruptedly continued ever since and practically all through the year. Miss Flockton (from 1901 to 1919), and Miss Ethel King since that date, have made drawings in colour of all cotyledons, as soon as they were unfolded, and fresh drawings of the identical seedlings were made at various stages. These are in colour, and have developed some surprising results. They will be reproduced in due course. Excellent.examples of the various types of Eucalyptus Cotyledons are depicted in Part LXX, Plates 286-287. b. Poly- (tri-) cotyly. Poly- (tri-) phylly (in the juvenile leaves, of course). These aberrant conditions are apparently rare, and have been seldom recorded. Probably they are much more frequent than at present supposed. In one case I cite, tricotyly was traced to have preceded triphylly, and further inquiry may further reveal a connection between the two phenomena, but it is not invariably the case. Dr. C. Hall has seen tricotyly in EL. coriacea, E.. eleophora, E. exinua, EL. Bosistoana, E. pilularis, E. Stuartiana, and E. microcorys. (Proc. Linn. Soc., N.S.W., xxxix, 519, 1914.)

Rodway, 17th January, 1918.) ? > c. Cohesion. “ Velenovsky mentions a seedling of #. pulverulenta in which one cotyledon only was present, as a consequence of which the foliage leaves above were alternately arranged. It is possible that each leaf in these cases represents a congenital fusion of two.” (“ Principles of Plant Teratology,’ Wordsell, i, 220.) I do not think I have seen a seedling with only one cotyledon, except it has been removed by an accident, but alternately arranged leaves immediately above the cotyledons are not rare. We have cohesion of cotyledonary leaves in 2. punctata DC., the seed from Como, Sydney (J. L. Boorman and W. M. Carne). I have also seen it in H. setosa R.Br. (Northern Territory), forming a symmetrical cup. I have not specially searched for this form of cohesion. d. Margin. In the same plant we may have one cotyledon strictly reniform (margimate), and the other more or less emarginate. If the three principal groups of cotyledon leaves be studied, it will be seen that they chiefly differ in the degree of emarginateness; in other words, in examining a complete series of Reniforme and Bilobee (which two groups contain a minimum amount of it), and of Bisectz (which contain it in its extreme form), we have a perfect series. 130 Amongst a number of individual species there is so much variation that it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to separate them on their emarginate character, or lack of it. ‘“ The cotyledons are transversely oblong, with or without a shallow sinus at the apex, with a short midrib terminating at the smus . . .” (Lubbock, i, 525.) Dr. Cuthbert Hall (op. cit., p. 478) has made the question of entire and emarginate cotyledons of some importance. He even makes it a basis of classification :— I. Entire Cotyledons. (a) Bloodwoods or Corymbosas, characterised by very large or medium-sized cotyledons, usually reniform in shape, and resembling those of the Angophoras. (6) Of medium size to small, reniform, entire . . . mainly Stringybarks with reniform anthers. (c) Small, reniform or orbicular. EL. dumosa, EH. populifolia, E. quadrangulata. E. polybractea, (frutecetorum), E. incrassata. II. Emarginate Cotyledons. (a) Large, obcordate, cuneate at base, petioles long, #. marginata, EB. Todtiana, EB. megacarpa, E. santalifolia (diversifolia). The lastnamed shades off into the following group. (6) Medium to small, emargination moderate, slight or even practically absent. . . . In most cases, the undersides of the leaves and cotyledons are tinged deep purplish-red. Most of the species contain Eucalyptol (cineol), and many phellandrene and piperitone. The anthers are generally reniform. (Then follows a list of species all of which are Renanthere except E. striaticalyx. It includes E. Planchoniana.) (c!) Smaller, more or less transversely oblong, emargination moderate or very slight. . . . In this group may be placed the Ironbarks and most of the Boxes with anthers opening by pores; the remainder mostly have parallel anthers. (c?) Very small, transversely oblong or triangular, emargination slight or practically absent Where the petiole is so small, it is sometimes almost impossible to know whether to put some of these in this group or in (I (c). (The members of this group are moderately variable as regards anthers.) (c3) Larger than in II (c!), more deeply emarginate, lobes obovate-oblong, obtuse, divergent. Tt will be seen that this group shades off from (c!), just as (c?) may be taken to shade off from (c!) in the other direction. Comprised in it are EL. eudesmioides, E. gomphocephala, BE. Lehmann, E. cosmopnylla, E. cladocalyx, E. hemilampra, E. eleophora, E. goniocalyx, E. urnigera, EB. unialata, E. Mardent, E. globulus. e. Venation. . . with a short midrib terminating in the sinus, and a longer lateral nerve running along the centre of the lateral lobes. They are practically, therefore, trinerved, but the whole of the venation is sometimes obscure or indiscernible owing to the opacity of the cotyledons.’ (Lubbock, i, 525.) Venation is a character taken cognisance of in the seedlings, when describing the cotyledons. ee Subsequent pairs of leaves (No. 5).—All pairs beginning with the second pair and ending just before the alternate leaves. There is considerable range in the number of pairs and in their shape. Se a 131 Number of Opposite Leaves.—Stress has been laid on the number of pairs of opposite leaves in a seedling, before the alternate-leaved stage is reached. The large number of narrow opposite leaves in 2. vimenalis and EF. radiata, and of broad ones in EB. Stuartiana and FE. Gunnii, arrest the attention of every intelligent stroller in the bush, while the fact that some species (e.9., H. paniculata and E. corymbosa) change so rapidly to the alternate-leaved stage that one can rarely obtain opposite leaves of them, except after careful and perhaps prolonged search, is known to fewer observers. This persistence in oppositeness, or in refusal “* to grow up,’ is instructive. Such species as FB. viminalis and EF. Stuartiana are physiologically retrograde, while E. paniculata belongs to a group more progressive in the cycle of life. Intermediate Leaves (6) and 6a (Miss Flockton (6a) ).—In some cases there may be some repetition here, but we have the advantage of two sets of facts made by different observers, and they may be looked upon as supplemental or corroborative as a rule. Miss Flockton’s observations were invariably made from the seedling in the pot as she drew it, gazing at it again and again. Intermediate leaves indicate all leaves from the last pair of opposite leaves to the lanceolate or adult leaf. There is a great range of variation in these leaves, as shown in the figures, and they are directly comparable with the intermediate leaves of the shoot as shown at Part LXVI, p. 307, Plates 270-271. At the same time, it may be proper to point out that the intermediate leaves of the shoot, as thus defined, have a wider range than those of the seedlings as defined above. In other words, in the intermediate leaves of the shoot we adopt the convention of including all shapes and sizes of leaves between the earliest and the latest, while in the seedling it becomes necessary, as a matter of convenience, to restrict the intermediate leaves in the manner stated. But the two kinds of intermediate leaves are strictly correlative. Some seedlings show alternate leaves immediately after the cotyledons—some of the Corymbose, for example. They seem irregular or anomalous in the present state of our knowledge, but our acquaintance with them is increasing. They may be alternate and then opposite, before they finally become alternate. Indeed, there may be two forms of leaves, each strictly opposite in character, before they proceed to the alternate stage. They can also be petiolate and then sessile before they finally become petiolate. N.B.—In the Corymbosee and Hudesmiez the intermediate leaves start from the last peltate leaf. Where the name of Miss Flockton occurs in brackets, with the detailed descriptions of seedlings, it means that these are the notes made by that artist at the various times each seedling was brought to her for drawing. (In a small percentage of cases the notes were made by the ladies who made drawings under Miss Flockton’s supervision.) These notes extend over twenty years, and I prefer to copy them as they stand, rather than attempt to bring them into uniformity in 1923. I think they will be more useful as impressions made at the time, and hope that very many more such notes will be made by future workers, 132 ~ DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF SEEDLINGS. DIVISION RENIFORMA.

Ido not think that any of our Eucalypts attain the age that, owing to their great size, many people have assigned to them. I think that an increase of 1 inch in diameter per year is a moderate estimate for the growth of many of these trees, in the conditions and environment in which they grew, and that from a half to 1 inch per annum is not an uncommon growth for many of our forest trees under average favourable conditions. In Bairnsdale township there is a very fine specimen of Z. tereticornis, a tall straight tree, with a bole about 5 feet in diameter at 3 feet from the ground, and about 45 feet to the first branch. It stands in an open place all alone. I have known the tree for thirty-eight years, and believe it has increased in diameter more than 24 inches during that time. It shows little sign of decay, but I believe its rate of growth has been less of later years. I look upon its age as 80-100 years. Near Orbost, growing on the rich river flat lands of the Snowy River, there is a splendid specimen of E. botryoides. When I saw it first, about thirty years ago, it was about 2 ft. 6 in. in diameter. Now it is fully 5 feet, and about 50 feet in height to the first branch. Again, and this is more definite, some years ago I saw in Stratford, growing in a White- horn hedge around a garden, two fine healthy vigorous Red Gum trees, EL. tereticornis. I asked the owner of the garden how they came there. He said they came up as seedlings after he planted the hedge, and he let them grow. He had planted the hedge forty years before. I often noticed these trees, but about five years later, owing to the wide-spreading branches spreading too far over the street, the trees had to be removed. They were cut off level with the top of the hedge, at 5 feet from the ground, and at that height one of them was 30 inches in diameter, and the other about 26 inches. That was the growth of these trees in forty-five years. The stems or boles were not very high, probably not more than 10 feet, to where they spread into three or four limbs, with a thick spreading top of dense foliage. ee 143 Some years ago, on the road from Glen Wills to Granite Flat, I passed through a very dense forest of young E£. gigantea, about 12 to 18 inches in diameter, and about 100 feet high. The growth was much too dense for the trees to attain any large size, but I was able to see, here and there, traces of a former forest, in fragments, and outlines of stumps showing in the surface of the ground which indicated that the ground had been occupied, apparently at some rather remote preiod, by a forest of immense trees. The traces of these trees were faint, but still sufficient to show that there had been a forest of giant trees there at one time, perhaps not so far remote either. One thing struck me as peculiar, that there were no large, or moderately large trees of a later generation (only the large saplings I have mentioned, probably the largest of them not more than 2 feet in diameter). Had the former forest been destroyed by a bush fire so fierce that even the surface of the ground was burned to such an extent as to prevent all growth of vegetation for a number of years? E. gigantea is, of all the ‘ Stringybarks,’ the most easily destroyed by fire.”’ (Harry Hopkins, Bairnsdale, Victoria.) “On page 245 of Part XLVIII you quote Dr. Howitt as saying, with reference to rapid growth, etc. * At Omeo, in the Government Reserve a number of E. viminalis are now (1890) 60 feet high, which in. 1863 were only small saplings under 5 feet in height.’ These trees were really #. rubida (I at first mistook them for viminalis). They have increased greatly in size, though not much in height since Howitt described them as aboye. The short bole has increased to a diameter up to 3 or 4 feet, crowned with a dense wide- spreading head rising to a total height of perhaps 80 or 90 feet, but the trees are past their prime and are dying—in fact some of them have died, or are falling to pieces through decay. On the main road from Omeo to Cassilis, near the Livingstone Creek bridge, there are several fine trees of EB. rubida with boles 23 feet to 4 feet in diameter, and 15 to 25 feet long—a very noticeable group.some ten or twelve years ago, of fine grown healthy looking trees. These are now (1921) showing signs of old age and decay, and several are apparently dymg. As I wrote previously, I think there has in the past been much misconception as to the age of Eucalypts. I doubt if many species live for more than 100 years, and I believe that most of them reach maturity at between 50 and 100 years.” (The same, 3-1-22.) Natural Afforestation. (See Part XLVIII, pp. 248-250.) “7 am particularly interested in the remarks quoted from Dr. A. W. Howitt at p. 248. I entirely agree with him. Iam acquainted with a great part of the country to which he refers, and my observations lead me to the same conclusions, especially his remarks about ‘ Annual bush fires’ and the rapid increase and expansion of forest growth when fires were restricted. When the white man first occupied: this part of the country, the land was described as ‘ open’ forest, and more or less well grassed. Probably in the summer season fires occurred frequently in the dry grass, so that the “ bush’ would be burned annually, or semi-annually, keeping the country ‘clean’ as Dr. Howitt describes. These ‘ grass’ fires (rather than “bush ’ fires) would do little or no damage to the grown timber and larger saplings, but would keep in check the immoderate growth of seedlings and destroy other undergrowth and many pests and parasites. When the white settler came along, he feared these fires, which destroyed the herbage and endangered his flocks, and so he took every care to prevent them from starting or from spreading if once started. Thus the seedlings and other undergrowth had a chance to grow and secure possession, until in time what was formerly well-grassed open timber country, became a thicket of saplings or a jungle of useless undergrowth or ‘scrub.’ - When ‘ bush ’ fires did occur, as was inevitable, owing to the accumulation of dead and dying material in these scrubs, and the falling débris of leaves, bark, etc., from the larger trees, they raged with great fury, doing great damage to even the largest trees, and seriously injuring or killing outright the younger trees and saplings. These conditions exist to-day, and, because of the infrequency of fires, rather than their frequency, in the forest areas, much damage is done to the timber, and insect pests increase and flourish in the intervals. For some years past I have been saying that it would be beneficial to have all the forest country, as far as practicable, burned annually. This would, I believe, in time restore the ‘ bush.’ country to its former clean and open forest character, promote the growth of a more healthy forest and better class of timber, keep down the many injurious insect and vegetable pests, and prevent the recurrence of periodic destructive bush fires.” (The same.) 83989—E 144 E. acmenioides is one of the worst species to sucker, and one of the first to send up a crop of seedlings zfter ringbarking, and if left alone it forms a dense forest of saplings in a very short time, as the growth is iemarkably rapid. (North-eastern New South Wales, W. F. Blakely.) E. dealbata A. Cunn. “ A considerable number of seedlings of it were found coming up naturally in the forest where it was planted after the forest had been damaged by a severe forest fire. This is the first and only definite record we have of any natural reproduction of Eucalyptus in northern India. In the same forest there is also natural reproduction of HZ. globulus as a result of the fire, but the seedlings are mainly of the species (#. dealbata) Iam sending.” (R.S.

In the report of the Forest Department of Western Australia for the year ended 30th June, 1924, Mr. S. L. Kessell, the Conservator, has a brief extract at p. 21 on ** Marri Kino Investigation,” with acknowledgments to Mr. L. W. Phillips, of the Perth Technical School. . He speaks of the natural reservoirs in EL. calophylla trees being of two distinct types. One consists of perpendicular fissures radiating from the centre of the tree. As much as 10 gallons of liquid kino have been obtained from one series of shakes, but this yield is very exceptional. The kino drawn from such reservoirs is of inferior quality, having low specific gravity. The other type of reservoir is in the form of a cavity between wood and bark, and can generally be relied upon to give a satisfactory yield of pure liquid kino. It also differs from the radial type in that it usually refills in from two to four weeks after tapping, when a further supply of kino may be drawn from it. The presence of these reservoirs may be detected usually by a slight swelling of the trunk. The cause of these veins was at one time suggested to be due to bacterial infection of undifferentiated tissue immediately below the cambial region. Experiments, however, do not give any definite confirmation to this theory, and for the present it has been superseded by a purely chemical hypothesis. Mr. W. E. Campion favours an explanation based on carbon dioxide poisoning, due either to the exposure of the cambial region to the air by the boring of insects or mechanical damage, or to an accumulation of an excess of carbon dioxide by respiratory processes in microscopic cavities caused by the rupture of delicate cells of the cambial region owing to wind strain.

This plant was again inspected on 22nd March, 1917, when it was 8 inches (20 cm. full) high. It was branched, but showed no difference in the leaves. Portion of the seed which produced the above plants was resown on 14th December, 1917 (Ref. No. x 45). On 4th January, 1918, the seedlings were precisely similar to that already noted (No. 7). A seedling a little more advanced was drawn on 22nd January, 1918. Seen later (28th May, 1918) it was “ identical ” with fig. No. 8. Another seedling (Ref. No. 41) of the same history as the preceding (Ref. No. 43), was examined on 28th May, 1918. This seedling was then 6 inches high, and was identical with No. 27, drawing dated 19th January, 1914 (fig. 8) except that the leaves were more shortly petiolate. The cotyledons were still attached. This seedling had deteriorated; at 8 inches high it was much branched and the leaves were all small and irregular in size. Stem still hairy. B. 21, Northern Territory (W. S. Campbell, September, 1911). On 25th March, 1915, this seedling was examined. It agreed with No. 27 in the first and second stages, except that the glandular processes on stem and leaves were more pronounced. X 44, Darwin, Northern Territory (G. F. Hill, 25th October, 1915).

It is most regrettable that he did not live to see the completion of his great work, of which 65 Parts have already appeared, and the final Parts were prepared by him for publication prior to his death. With the kind permission of Dr. Darnell-Smith, Director, Botanic Gardens, Sydney, this and the subsequent Parts will be edited by Messrs. R. H. Cambage, C.B.E., F.L.S., and W. F. Blakely, Assistant Botanist, Botanic Gardens, both of whom have been in constant touch with the late Mr. Maiden during the progress of the work. Wo, WIUDK Jeng 45 Part LXXIV of the Complete Work.

Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by antiquity, and transmits that hoard, augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages. In these pursuits, therefore, the first speculators lie under great disadvantages, and, even when they fail, are entitled to praise.”’ Macautay’s ‘“‘Essay On MILTON.” PRICE THREE SHILLINGS AND SIXPENCE.

In the field the intermediate leaves may be seen on saplings more than 20 feet high, they are readily distinguished from those of other species with which they are associated, by the shape and particularly the pale scabrous undersurface. It is a beautiful species in the sapling stage. (6a) (Miss Flockton). EL. eudesmioides. Ist leaves ovate, long petioles (30).

(6) Broad Series.—Small setose, especially the stems, ovate to elliptical in the early stage, passing into lanceolate sessile in the intermediate stage, glaucous to yellowish-green. The species of this series are strongly reminiscent of the Corymbose in every character, except that they are, like the Hudesmee non-peltate. (1) Hypocotyl. FE. Spenceriana, absent or very short.

There is a good deal of work yet to be done in this direction. This should be systematically followed up, although, owing to the great distances in Australia, we may have to wait a long time for the material. Inclusion in the list does not necessarily mean that I have no specimens of the organ asked for, but that I want better or more characteristic ones than shown in the drawings. APPEARANCE OF TREE AND ECOLOGICAL PARTICULARS. Attention is invited to the above. Trees deemed to be characteristic should be chosen, and notes made when actually standing in front of the tree. BARK. At Part L, p. 320, I have recommended combination of study of the bark with that of size and habit of the species, and also of the timber at the same time. See Part LI for the best account of the barks I know, but of some of the species mentioned our knowledge is defective, while of the barks of some we know little or nothing. See remarks under Rhytiphloiz (p. 41), for example. TIMBERS. My latest: classification of timbers will be found at Part LIT]. Of many we know little or nothing, partly because a botanist has usually no opportunity of cutting a piece of timber from a tree from which he has herbarium specimens, and, even if he had, the difficulty of transport often arises. It is also a matter of history that collections of timbers to match herbarium specimens are apt to disappear, and that is why I formed, de novo, the collection of timbers in the Technological Museum, and, later, the collection of smaller pieces in the Botanic Gardens Herbarium and Museum. Of the timbers of EL. pruinosa and E. Shirley: 1 know nothing; the latter species has been disentangled from the former, and it is reasonable to suppose that a knowledge of the timbers would make the relations of the two species clearer. These examples are merely illustrative, as | want to emphasise the pot that botanists should collect the timbers with bark on just as they do the twigs bearing flowers or fruits. 239 JUVENILE LEAVES. (What we want is the earliest stage of the juvenile leaf. The inclusion of the present large list does not mean that we have not juvenile leaves of most of the species, but it emphasises the point, stressed at Part LVI, p. 281, that the juvenile leaf is ideal, and many of our specimens do not attain to it.)

Maiden, I.S.0., F.R.S., F.L.S., died on 16th November, 1925, at the age of 66 years. It is most regrettable that he did not live to see the completion of his great work, of which 65 Parts have already appeared, and the final Parts were prepared by him for publication prior to his death. With the kind fermission of Dr. Darnell-Smith, Director, Botanic Gardens, Sydney, this and the subsequent Parts will be edited by Messrs. R. H. Cambage, C.B.E., F.L.S., and W. I.

Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by antiquity, and transmits that hoard. augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages.

Soc., N.S.W., XLUX, 423, 1915) :— Hypocotyl erect, terete, pale green, glabrous, up to 1-3 em. long. Cotyledons slightly emarginate or almost reniform, entire, 5 to 8 mm. by 3 to 4 mm., upperside green, underside paler, glabrous; petioles 5 to 4 mm. long. Seedling foliage opposite, entire, glabrous, elliptical-lanceolate, tapering into a short petiole of not more than | to 2 mm. long: midrib prominent on underside, lateral veins few, and arranged at angles of about 50° to 60° with midrib, reticulate between, intramarginal vein obscure on margin or absent. On a seedling 6 inches high the second pair of leaves measured about 1 em. each, while those of the sixth to the tenth pair measured from 2 to 2-5 cm. with a width of 6 to 7 mm., the internodes increasing in length from about 1 to 1-8 cm. In one specimen the first internode measured 2 cm. The seedling leaves of this species are very similar to those of 2. melanophloia, and are of interes? seeing that they taper towards the hase into a very short petiole, while the adult leaves are sessile and cordate. 270 Series 11.Small, oblong to lanceolate, usually obtuse.

Of these, two are confined to South Australia, and a third also extends to New South Wales, but quite adjacent to South Australia. Two are confined to New South Wales, and one occurs in New South Wales and Queensland. Speaking generally, the Bisecte belong to rather dry country. Exceptions are hybrida and squamosa, which are confined to the Sydney district. so far as we are aware; it may be that the areas in which they occur are physiologically dry.

T have already referred to the way in which this work has been written—records of facts have been made simultaneously with an appeal for additional facts, in other words, the whole of the facts submitted were not available when publication began. First of all, the help that I have received from Miss Margaret Flockton, the artist of this work, is immense, and it speaks for itself. She is practically a joint author. Her drawings are alike beautiful and artistic, and the botanist will appreciate them because of their fidelity to nature. As knowledge progressed, and perhaps long after a loan specimen had been returned to its owner, the faithfulness of the drawing sometimes brought out a hitherto unsuspected point. I have reproduced specimens of the fine series of coloured drawings of seedlings at different stages, on which she has been engaged for over twenty years, and the work of Miss Ethel King and Miss Phyllis Clarke on the same series, though very much less in extent, is worthy of the greatest praise. Mr. William Faris Blakely, in addition to his other duties, has been my assistant for Eucalyptus since 1915, and has given me increasing help since that date, so that he has been quite indispensable to me. In return, I have instructed him in the subject to the best of my ability. Without for a moment presuming to dictate his future course of action, I hand over the unrivalled Eucalyptus collection of the National Herbarium to him, im a special sense, for he is acquainted with it as no one else is, and he is entirely competent. Iam confident that he will successfully add to, in his own way, the Eucalyptus work carried on by me at the National Herbarium for nearly thirty years, and at the Technological Museum for ten years before that. f I never forget the early pioneering work that my old colleague, Mr. Henry Deane, M.A., and I undertook in the eighties and nineties, and some of this work is commemorated by species and varieties which bear our joint names. I do not think that a single Part has been published which does not show my indebtedness to Mr. R. H. Cambage. No botanist has helped me so much as he, not only with critical specimens and valuable notes, but many observations are the result of consultations at various times with this valued colleague, whose knowledge of the genus is profound. This can be seen in part from the quotations I have so freely made from his works. It would be simply impossible to fully state my indebtedness to him. A bibliography of his Eucalyptus work will be found in another place. I most gratefully do acknowledge the assistance of Dr. T. L. Bancroft, of Kidsvold, Queensland, who has supplied me for many years with herbarium specimens, heavy axe-cuts of bark and timber, photo- craphs or negatives or both, and valuable notes—all illustrative and to the point. No man could have a more responsible and unselfish correspondent than he, who is well known to zoologists and physiologists also as one who delights in supplying material to facilitate the studies of others, even if they interrupt his own. Professor J. B. Cleland has been a similarly unselfish collector of the same type, and it is a great pleasure to acknowledge his kind assistance. For specimens and notes which have enabled me to clear up many points in regard to Northern Territory species, I am indebted to Dr. H. I. Jensen, Messrs. Charles Ernest Frederick Allen and Gerald Freer Hill. These gentlemen have travelled great distances over difficult country and have always been patient in replying to my inquiries. Dr. Jensen’s work on the geological formations on which various Eucalypts are found is largely of a pioneering character, and wlll be found to be freely quoted in Part LXVII. From the Forestry authorities, particularly of Western Australia and my own State, I received active support. As regards the former State, Australian, forestry and botany both deplored the transfer of Mr. C. EH. Lane-Poole, the Conservator of Forests, who, recognising the fact that sound forestry practice cannot exist without a sound knowledge of the taxonomy, morphology and ecology of Eucalyptus, helped *28947—O 348 me with notes, photographs and adequate specimens. In the same public spirit I have been helped by his successor, Mr. Stephen L. Kessell, and his botanical collector, Mr. Charles Austin Gardner, who, by the judicious collection of specimens and valuable field-notes concerning Western Australian species in general, has valuably supplemented the researches in tropical Western Australia of Mr. W. V. Fitzgerald, and enabled one to co-ordinate the work of collectors in the Northern Territory and tropical Queensland. Mr. W. C. Grasby, friend of everybody who desires to study the plants of Western Australia, has provided many specimens and notes, and his name often occurs in these pages. In South Australia, Mr. Walter Gill, Conservator of Forests of that State, has helped me for at least thirty years. In Victoria I have had some assistance from Mr. A. D. Hardy, of the Forestry Department. The co-operation of Mr. R. D. Hay, Chairman of the Forestry Commission of my own State, and a fellow- worker for many years, has been cordial all along. The specimens sent by each Forester have been referred to under each species concerned; the work of Mr. W. A. W. de Beuzeville has been especially note- worthy. The Government Botanists of the various States have all been most kind in presenting and lending specimens, and in supplying information. As regards Melbourne, I mention the late Mr. J. G. Luehmann Professor Ewart and his successor, Mr. W. Laidlaw. In Adelaide, Mr. J. M. Black, although occupying no official position, does much public botanical work at his own expense, while Mr. L. Rodway, the honorary Government Botanist of Tasmania, could not have been more helpful if he had been endowed with adequate public funds. Last, but not least, let me acknowledge the great help I have received from Mr. C. T. White, of Brisbane, who succeeded his grandfather, Mr. F. M. Bailey, in the office of Government Botanist. In Teturn for their kindness, I can only hope that what I have written may be of assistance to my colleagues in the compilation of the Floras of their respective States. The sowing of seeds, and the welfare of the seedlings have necessitated the greatest care, extending over a long period of years. Sometimes an individual plant has had to be kept in the same pot under observation for over seven years. I am greatly indebted to Gardeners Sydney Smith, Ralph Tate, and Charles Woolnough, while the general supervision of Mr. E. N. Ward, the Superintendent and now Curator of the Sydney Botanic Gardens, has been much more than nominal. To successive Librarians of the Botanic Gardens, viz., the late Miss Amelia Maud Jenner, who died on 23rd February, 1918 (Parts VI to XXXIV), Miss R. M. Breading (now Mrs. McKinnon) (Parts XXXV to XLIX), and Miss M. Merrick (Part L to end), I am indebted more than I can express. These ladies have helped me by hunting up references, by typing confused (sometimes very confused) manuscript, and reading the proofs. To Mr. Keith E. Rogers I am indebted for the reading of proofs of some Parts, and to Mr. Robert H. Anderson of others, and to the latter I am indebted for useful compilation work that I have elsewhere acknowledged. My own daughter, Miss Acacia Dorothy Maiden, B.A., has often rendered useful service by under- taking translations into and from the Latin, to save me time. As a rule I have acknowledged the help I have got from my friends, when speaking of their specimens, and hundreds of names will be found to be quoted in this way. If I have omitted any names I ought to have inserted, I shall be very sorry. CN Y 90. 95. poe 96. ive) a | GR gO. Z 99. EXPLANATION OF COLOURED PLATES. COLOURED PLATE 9. E. odorata Behr and Schlecht.

Seedling with two cotyledon leaves and a number of almost linear leaves: all shown not opposite except the two top pairs, but this not-opposite appearance is apparently owing to some leaves having fallen off. (I have, however, a drawing in which this not-opposite appearance is exhibited in an even younger seedling.) Further sowings might he made. Sown 18th September, 1913; drawn early in January, 1914. — Os ree Same particulars as No. 133. Top of a seedling 18 cm. high. What is drawn shows a tendency to axillary branches: but the lower portion (not drawn) shows a much greater tendency to branch, a pair of branches being in the axils of the first pair of first leaves, and occurring in each of the seven pairs of first leaves (not drawn). One of the branches was 5 cm. long. Drawn 19th January, 1914. 125. Same particulars as No. 133. ‘Iwo portions of a seedling | foot 5 inches high, drawn 12th November, 1914. This seedling shows that the decurrence of the leaves is exhibited early in the life of the plant. (For further particulars and discussion see Part XXXIX, p. 281.) The rachis ig quadrangular, as conspicuously shown in £. globulus and other species. It has a rather thick leaf, with the intramarginal vein near to the edge. Both sides are similar in colour. I have a series of drawings of what I believe to be #. Flocktoni@ which are more glaucous than those already referred to. The leaves are even more decurrent, and in every essential character the seedlings resemble Nos. 133-5. The seeds were received from the Woods and Forests Department of Western Australia, without precise locality, in 1903, labelled £. salmonophloia by mistake, and sown 6th June, 1905. The drawings commenced on 11th July, 1905. It is impossible to say how a slip of this kind occurred, but the result brought to light a remarkable seedling. Ly. leplophylla B.v.M. 136. (Ref.
