692 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSFAJM. vol. xxvi. 



There are so few Eucal3'pti found outside Australia that the question i 

 of the identity of one found beyond the limits of that continent is oi 

 interest, and the occurrence of the genus in the Philippines is now set 

 at rest and doubtless its range in that group will be ascertained bj 

 American botanists. 



E. naudhiiana F. v. Miiller is so little known that the foUowin^i 

 notes in regard to it may be acceptable. It was described by Miillej 

 in the Australasian Journal of Pharmacy," under the title oJ 

 Description of a hitherto unrecorded species of Eucalyptus from Ne\^ 

 Britain. New Britain is of course now a German possession undej 

 the name of Bismarck Archipelago. 



A correspondent in that group writes to me: 



Eucalyptus naudiniana is common in'New Pommern, though not in the Ralun 

 district, where I live. It grows especially on the rivers, from the coast to the moun 

 tains, and is so common in the forests that two sawmills have been started especialli. 

 for this timber. The timber is not so hard as the Australian Eucalyptus but still .1 

 HOod, useful timber. i 



1 know of no locality for the species other than that indicated in thi ' 

 paper.
