426 THE EXAMINATION OF EUCALYPTUS KINOS. 



Eucalyptus trachyphloia, F.v.M., B.F1. iii. 221. 



Found in Queensland. 



" The analysis of one sample of kino gave us as much as 73 

 per cent, of kino-tannic acid (soluble in water and alcohol and 

 precipitable by acetate of lead out of an acidified solution), 18J 

 per cent, of kino red or allied substance (insoluble in water but 

 soluble in alcohol), 8J per cent, gum and pigment (soluble in 

 water, and partly in alcohol, but not precipitable by acetate of 

 lead)." (Mueller, Eucalyptographia.)
