Murrurundi, Bathurst, and Blackheath (3400 feet), New South

The form described as typical is that found alone at Blackheath ; 

 in the other localities the variety is the only form occurring. 

 Except for this localisation the variety would not have required 

 special notice, as the difference is very slight, and traces of the 

 black hindmarginal scales are sometimes perceptible.
