slightly urceolate, two equidistant sharp low ridges or wings, sessile, 
about 1,5 cm long by 1 cm in diameter, rim grooved and narrow, valves 
(4 in the specimens seen), with their tips below the orifice. — Western 
Australia. — The closest affinity of this species is to E. grossa F. v. M. 
from which it differs in the peculiar shape of the buds, and to a less 
exstent in the fruits. The filaments of the new species dry red, while 
they appear to always remain yellow in E. grossa. — I cannot see my 
way.to assume that it is a variety of that species. 
1068. Eucalyptus Griffithsii J. H. Maiden, Le p. 177. — A large 
White Gum, attaining a trunk diameter of two feet, timber reddish- 
brown in colour and esteemed for fuel. — „White Gum“ magnus, foliis 
juvenibus angustis, glauco-viridibus concoloribus, venis obscuris praeter 
costam mediam. Follis maturis confertis angusto-lanceolatis vel lanceo- 
latis, 10 cm longis, 2 cm latis, petiolo 2—3 cm longo eodem colore 
utraque pagina, margine calloso, venis lateralibus plumosis, — Gemmis 
apicibis planis eostatis duabis costis fere in alis dilatatis, floribus ternis, 
antheris magnis longisque, a tergo glandula ovale. Fructibus magnis 
conoidis, valvulis aperte exsertis, margine plana. — Western Au- 
stralia: The type comes from Kalgoorlie, where, as a large tree, it is 
now.very scarce, because of the great demand for timber of every kind 
for the mines and for ordinary domestic purposes all over the Eastern 
Goldfields, — E Griffithsii is referred to in part. iv of my „Critical Re- 
vision^ as a form of E. incrassata, with blunt opercula and large sub- 
conical fruits. Figured at 5a to 5d of plate 15 of that part. — It 
belongs to the E. incrassata series as regards anthers, and that affinity 
is borne out by examination of other morphological characters. It is, 
however, sharply separated from that species by the narrow juvenile 
foliage. — Its closest affinity appears to be E. corrugata, Luehmann, from 
which it is sufficiently separated by the more numerous and more 
accentuated corrugations of the buds and fruits and the smaller fruits 
of E. corrugata. 
1069. Eucalyptus occidentalis End]. var. macrandra J. H. Maiden, 1. c., 
p. 187. — E. macrandra F. v. M. — Western Australia: Forms a 
thicket of Marlock 4—8 feet high on a slope of Gaalgugup Hill, Kalgan 
Plains. — Suckers bright green on both sides, ovate acuminate, appar- 
ently similar to those of E. occidentalis. — Branches brittle. Very long 
opercula, bulging a little at the top. — Fruits conoid, slightly angled, 
not urceolate or scarcely so, usually three valved, capitate or with very 
short pedicels. Tips of valves not exsert, or only slightly so, — „E. 
macrandra F. v. M.“ (B. Fl. III, 235) is an extreme form of E. occidentalis, 
exhibiting elongated calyces on hardly any stalklets with very long 
stamens, and generally smaller fruits with very short fruit valves*
