136 ON THE EUCALYPTS OF N.S.W., PART VIII.,

(Syn. E. acervula, Miq.; also E. paludosa, Baker, these Pro- 

 ceedings, 1899, p. 464). 



This is E. acervula, Miq., according to specimens in European 

 herbaria. We have found it as far north as Hill Top. It was 

 called " Yellow Gum " on a label by the late Rev. Dr. Woolls 

 over 40 years ago. It has a yellowish sap-wood, and the buds 

 and general cast of the foliage are often yellow. It is also called 

 " Creek Gum." " Yellow Gum " is the district name (Goulburn 

 to Moss Vale) for ruhida also.

those extremely protruded. We have had these extreme forms 

 under observation for many years, and continue to hold the 

 opinion that it is impossible to separate them from E. Guruiii. 

 Mr. R. T. Baker has figured and described an extreme form 

 (which we have for many years noted in MS. as E. Guniiii, 

 Form 3) in these Proceedings (1899, p. 298) under the name of 

 E. camphora, and further field experience only establishes our 

 conviction that it is but a variety of E. Gunnii. The tree is very 

 common in North-Eastern Victoria, and was always labelled 

 " E. Gunnii " by Mueller. 



We have E. Gunnii from the Jenolan Caves, with typical fruits 

 and leaves even broader than those of Mr. Baker's camphora.
