Its flowers usually appear in threes; but in Mr. Harrison^s 

 specimens they were solitary ; in other respects they quite 

 agreed with a wild specimen collected by Mr. Allan Cun- 

 ningham and given me by Dr. Hooker. 



To Mr. Cunningham I am indebted for the following 

 information respecting this species, and for specimens of 

 it and the undermentioned, which were long since collected 

 by him in his various expeditions of discovery in New 

 Holland. 



" T. macrophylla is a tree 50-60 feet high, affording, by means of 

 its ample foliage, a pleasant, agreeable shade, on the sandy southern 

 shores of Moreton Bay, New South Wales (Lat. 27°. 30'. s.) where it 

 was first observed, bearing flowers and fruit, in Sept. 1824. It is 

 nearly allied to T. conferta, R. Br. but the segments of the calyx are 

 smaller."

 petiolis calycibusque pubescentibus, laciniis calycis ovatis brevibus 

 acutis, phalangibus polyandris.
