He states that it flowers abundantly in the spring, and its 

 flowers have not the disagreeable odour of those of E. rostrata. 



M. Trabut has been kind enough to send me twigs in bud, flower 

 and early fruit of his species. I do not consider it sufficiently 

 removed from the very variable E. rudis to warrant its being 

 designated a new species. It is a broad-leaved form, but I have 

 seen naturally grown E. rudis with leaves as broad. I do not 

 see any evidence of admixture of E. rostrata in my specimens. 

 As regards the leaves, an admixture of E. rostrata would tend to 

 narrow them.

In my paper on hybridisation in this genus,* through an 

 annoying misprint, the word ''^rostrata" has been substituted for 

 " robusta." I look upon this form as E. robusta x resini/era. ^^
