896 VARIAI5ILITV OF EUCALIPTL'S UNDER CULTIVATION, 



and some of them nearly a century old, that this species is rather 

 liable to alteration under cultivation. 



8. E- desertorum, Naudin, 2nd Mem. p. 56. 



Copy of a label in Herb. Mus. Paris, " KucalyjUus Jesertorum, 

 Naudin (fragments de I'exemplaire typique). Originaire des 

 deserts de I'Australie interieure. Cult, a la Villa Thu ret, Antibes 

 (Alpes Maritimes). M. Naudin, 1889." It is E. nnciyiata, 

 Turcz. A shrub, flowering abundantly the third year from seed. 



9. E.firma (^auct. et ?cult.). 



I have seen a specimen in Herb. Paris labelled E. firma which 

 is referable to E. diver s[foHa, Bonpl. 



10. E. Eoekl Baij, ? Naudin. 



" Belle espece a rameaux retombants." (Cat. of Vilmorin, 

 Andrieux & Cie.). 



It is rosirafa, Schlecht, or tereticornis, Sm., according to speci- 

 mens from the above firm. I have seen only leaves and fruits. 

 Buds are desirable, and also information as to where it was 

 described. 



11. E. (jlohuloms, St. Lag., Ann. Soc. Bot. Lyon, ^ii. (1880), 

 125. 



I have not seen specimens. 



12. E. glomerata, Naudin. I do not know^ where it was 

 described. I have seen only a head of fruits from which it 

 appears, hardly with doubt, to be identical with E. coricolor, 

 Schauer. 



13. E. (jraciHpes, Naudin, 2nd Mem. p. 37. 



Naudin gives a general account of this supposed new species, 

 which he says is " tres analogue a VE. Ievco.ri//oi>." I have not 

 seen a full suite of specimens, only fruits from MM. Vilmorin, 

 Andrieux k Cie., and am not convinced that it is specifically 

 distinct from E. leucoxi/lon, which is a somewhat ^ ariable species. 



The Cat. of MM. Vilmorin, Andrieux & Cie., says : — 'Espece 

 tres voisine de VE. leiicorryhn. Elle en differe surtout a I'etat 

 juvenile et a I'etat adulte par son feuillage beaiicoup plus clair."
