'' Euc. viminalis, transit to SUtartiana, Beechvvorth (Falck)." 

 Fruits more pear-shaped and domed than usual. Multiflowered 

 as regards buds; the fruiting specimens in threes. The buds are 

 pointed and the tree seems nearest to var. ruhida. 



I have seen multiflowered specimens, with unusually small 

 leaves, from the Dandenong (Gessner). 



Ringwood (R. H. Cambage). 



^'' Euc. Stuavtiana^ formerly labelled Gannii, Barwon, 1853" 

 (Mueller). 



Warrandyte, 1880 (C. Walter). 



Both the latter multiflowered and nearest to var. ruhida, but 

 connecting with var. acarvula. 



I have collected a multiflowered form (5's) at Bright in Vic- 

 toria. Otherwise it is typical, and the venation strongly marked 

 like E. Gunnii from New England. 



South Australia.— See below, pp. 587-588. 



New South Wales. — Mt. Kosciusko (lower slopes) and Jinda- 

 byne (J.H.M.). 



Mrs. John (afterwards Lady) Hay exhibited at the Paris Exhi- 

 bition of 1855 some manna from a tree from the Upper Murray, 

 which I believe to be var. ruhida. She states, " It is found in 

 considerable quantities in many tracts, generally rather upland^ 

 scattered under the trees from which it exudes. The tree has a 

 white bark streaked with red, which shells off annually. The 

 manna falls in March and April. The trees are called by the 

 blacks Bak Bak." 



Adaminaby to Cooma (E. Betche). 



" White Gum " No. 3 of my notes. Brown's Camp, Delegate 

 (W. Biiuerlen). Tn 3's. Between the t3^pe and var. ruhida. 



Yellowish smooth bark, a little ribbony. Delegate-Bom bala 

 (H. Deane and J.H.M.). 



Bombala (J.H.M.). Mr. Ronald Campbell, of Cambalong, says 

 it is the common "Spotted Gum" of the Monaro. It is an 

 entirely valueless timber. It usually has a clean stem for a con- 

 siderable distance up. I was informed that stock are very fond 

 of the leaves; collateral evidence of its affinity to E. Gunnii.
