EUCALYPTUS FLORA. 353 
In Tasmania we miss the Stringy-barks, which are so 
abundant in New South Wales, viz.— 
£. eugenoides, Sieb., 
EZ. capitellata, Sm., 
and particularly 2. macrorrhyncha, F.v.M., which is so 
abundant also in Victoria. : 
Another tree with fibrous bark is 7. pulverulenta, Sims, 
which I have lately shown (Proc. Linn. Soc., N.S.W., 1901, 
553) to have an extended range, and to include one of the 
Victorian trees which has passed under the name of JL. 
Stuartiana, F.v.M. It is found near Melbourne, and it 
seems to me a likely species to occur in Tasmania also. 
There is no true Ironbark in Tasmania, 2.e., #. panicu- 
lata, Sm.; #. siderophlowa, Benth.; LH. crebra, F.v.M.; 
FE. sideroxylon, A. Cunn. The so-called White Ironbark of 
Tasmania is #. Sieberiana, F.v.M., the “‘ Mountain Ash,” 
and I have occasionally heard the name “‘ White Ironbark ” 
applied to it in New South Wales, though in error. 
There appears to be no true Box in Tasmania, nor, 
indeed, any of the Poranthere. 
None of several species known as Mahogany on the main- © 
land appear to be found in Tasmania. 
The Mallees seem also to be absent, but as they are - 
denizens of dry continental tracts, not as a rule approach- 
ing the sea-coast, this is hardly a matter for surprise. 
It seems somewhat strange that no member of the 
Parallelanthere from rostrata to the end of the list has 
yet been found in Tasmania, not even the widely-diffused 
tereticormis nor the coast-loving corymbosa. 
CriTICAL EXAMINATION OF TASMANIAN SPECIES. 
A.—E. coriacea, A. Cunn. (Syn. #. pauciflora, Sieb.). 
I have examined the following classical Tasmanian 
specimens : — 
(a) Gunn’s Nos. 684, 684?, 1107, and 1108 (R. 
Gunn, 1844, and noted in Hooker’s, Fl. T'as.), 
in Herb. Kew. They are typical #. coriacea, 
A. Cunn., and are #. piperita, Sm., var. pauct- 
flora, D.C., Prod. iii., 219, as pointed out by 
Hooker in Fl. Tas., 1., 136. 
(6) Col. Paterson ex. herb. Lambert in herb. Cant. 
I have also—Richmond Road, near Risdon—L. Rodway’s 
No. 266, of Oct. 1892.
