tree. The wood is heavy and eee close erase and differs 
markedly from the wood of no. 286 (S. psilosperma, F. Muell.?). 
The specimen bears on the label the locality Walsh River, and 
if this is the tributary of the Mitchell River rising in the hills 
near Cairns, the locality is so far from the N. Australian home of 
S. lucida, where it is described as a shrub, that it seems possible 
the wood may belong to os erie ion tet species of Strychnos. 
specimen labelled ‘ River,’ however, and collected 
by Mr. T. Barclay Millar in ‘Moreh 1891, appears to be identical 
with S. lucida and may be the one quoted by Bailey, so the 
sent is rather uncertain.
