OBSERVATIONS ON THE EUCALYPTS OF NEW 

 SOUTH WALES. 



Part YIII. 



By Henry Deane, M.A., F.L.S., etc., and J. H. Maiden, 

 F.L.S., (fee. 



E. STELLULATA, Siel).; these Proceedings, 1895, p. 598. 



In the highest parts of the Blue Mountains the variety 

 angusfjifolia has the fruits sometimes in dense globular umbels.

Topof Mt.Tabletop, Kiandradistrict(E. Betche; February, 1897). 

 The fruits are of unusual form, being nearly hemispherical, and 

 compressed after the fashion of E. capitellata, Sm. A tendency 

 to fruits of a similar shape is shown in specimens from other 

 elevated localities in Southern New South Wales. 



E. DIVES, Schauer. 



This is a strong species; at the same time a certain amount of 

 variation is evident when a large series of specimens is examined. 

 Thus the foliage may be both dull and glaucous, the fruits very 

 shiny or ver}' dull; they may be domed and may have the valves 

 slightly exserted, and be more or less pear-shaped. Fruits of this 

 sort undoubtedly show affinity to the pyriform-fruited series of 

 E. fastigata. 



Mr. A. Murphy, an experienced collector, says that in the 

 Bathurst district, he distinguishes this species from E. piperita 

 by the yellowish upper limbs, those of piperita being white.
