E. DIVES, Schau. — This species is known at Adelong as "Mess- 

 mate," which district is now its most western limit. 



E. OCHROPHLOIA, F.v.M. — This species is found as far east as 

 Goondiwindi, Queensland (C. N. Chapman), under the local name 

 of " Yuppunyah." 



E. MACRORHYNCHA, F.V.M. — This species occurs at Gramen, 

 N.W. of Glen Innes (Henry Hurst). This locality greatly 

 extends the northern limit of this important economic Eucalypt, 

 which will probably now be found to extend into Queensland. 



E. TERETICORNIS, Sm., var. LINEARIS, R. T. Baker et //. G. Smith. 

 — This variety has now been found at Stroud, where the timber 

 is regarded as much superior to that of the type, as posts made 

 from it have stood for 50 years in the ground and still remain 

 perfectly sound. Since this var, was recorded (' Eucalypts and 

 Essential Oils,' by Baker and Smith) further investigation has 

 shown that its differences from the type are much greater than 

 was originally supposed; in fact, they are of such a nature as 

 to fully justify its being raised to specific rank. 



E. MoRRisii, R. T. Baker. — Occurs as far west as IMt. Drysdale, 

 on rocky ridges, and is known as " Scrub Gum " (G. Wardrop). 



E. DEALBATA, A. Cunn. — The most easterly known locality for 

 this species is now to be recorded, namely, Putt}^, south-west of 

 Singleton, where it grows to a height of from 40 to 50 feet, with 

 a smooth, dark-coloured bark falling off in patches, giving the 

 tree a spotted appearance (A. C. Barwick). 



In the Cassilis district there appears to be a form of this 

 species with a very short blunt operculum; further investigation 

 is being taken to prove whether it is really a variety or a new 

 species. 



E. SQUAMOSA, Deane <k Maiden. — This tree, only previously 

 recorded from National Park and Richmond, is now found to 

 extend as far north as Putty, 50 miles south of Singleton, where 

 it is known as " Blood-tree." Mr. A. C. Barwick, who collected 

 the specimen, states that he has never found the tree to attain a 

 height of over 30 feet.
