It is confined to South-eastern Australia and Tasmania. In 

 nearly all cases, the anthers are kidney-shaped. 



E . Planchoniana F.v.lVl.(Pl.Ux., fig. 3; PI. lxix.,figs.7 and D).— 

 Hypocotyl erect, terete, glabrous, reddish, 1 cm. long. Cotyle-. 

 dons eraarginate, under side reddish, glabrous, obcordate, cuneate 

 at base, 1*1 x 0*9, petiole 0-5 cm. Leaves opposite, decussate, 

 lanceolate, subacute, glabrous, tapering at both ends, sessile, edges 

 waved First pr. 3-6 x 1, second 4x1 cm. First internode 1*3, 

 second 1*2 cm. Stem reddish, terete, glabrous. The cotyledons 

 in this species are the largest in the group, but the seedling has 

 much resemblance to that of E . pilularis in other respects. Its 

 oil, also, is of the same class. This species has parallel anthers, 

 however. 



E. pilularis Sm.(Pl.lix., fig. 2).— Cotyledons reniform, glabrous, 

 deep purple beneath, 0-6 x 0-3, petiole 0*3 cm. Leaves opposite, 

 lanceolate, subacute, sessile, tapering at bolh ends, becoming 

 cordate with rounded auricles at base, glabrous, margin waved, 

 purplish-tinged on under sides. First pr. 2-4 x 0-7, second 3-6x 1 '4, 

 third 6x1-6 cm. First internode 0*9, second 1*2, third 2-4, fourth 

 2 cm. Stem terete, glabrous, purplish. This seedling bears no 

 resemblance whatever to that of E. Muelleriana. 



E. acmenioides Schau.(Pl. Ivii., fig.l; PI. Ixix., fig. 8). — Cotyle- 

 dons obtusely quadrilateral, slightly emarginate, slight tinge of 

 reddish-purple beneath, 0*6 x 0*5, petiole 0*3 cm. Leaves lanceo- 

 late, opposite, sessile, obtuse then subacute, tapering at base, then 

 cordate and stem-clasping, glabrous, entire. First pr. 1-8 x 0-6, 

 second 2*2 x 0*7, third 3 x 0-8 cm. First internode 1 '6, second 

 1-8, third 1-8 cm. Stem terete, glabrous. 



E. umbra R. T. Baker (PI. xli., figs. 3-4).^ — Cotyledons resemble 

 those of E acmenioides^ but are a little smaller. The first pair 

 of leaves generally shortly petiolate, the next and following being 

 sessile and cordate at base and ovate-lanceolate, broader than in 

 E . acmenioides^ the venation also being pinnate, parallel, and less 

 oblique. 



E. carnea R. T. Baker (PI. Ivii., fig. 2). — This seedling closely 

 resembles E. umbra, but the cotyledons are smaller, and the 

 emargination very slight. The first pair of leaves has petioles
