nearly typical regnans. The fruits are not quite ripe; they 
are pyriform. 
I do not think that typical regnans (a White Gum) has 
been collected in New South Wales. But I shail take an 
early opportunity of showing that the species is very 
variable in regard to its bark, including all stages of rough 
bark. In New South Wales (as also in parts of Victoria) 
we have the rough-barked forms. 
C.—F. amygdalina, Labill. 
Tasmania is of course the home of the type. Labil- 
lardiére figured his plant, and this should be borne in mind 
when we consider the extensive range and the variability 
of the species. 
As compared with New South Wales forms, the Tas. 
manian specimens have often more domed fruits, and the 
rim thicker and more conspicuous. 
I will now proceed to take notice of some synonyms of 
the species, founded on Tasmanian forms. 
1. A plant in early bud from Tasmania, labelled 
“ Bucalyptus salicifolia”’ in Fraser’s* hand- 
writing is in Herb. Oxon., and is identical with 
No. 25, Gunn. It is 2. amygdalina. 
2. H. tenurwramis, Miq., is described in Ned. Kruidk. 
Arch., iv., 128 (1856), from Tasmanian speci- 
mens (‘“ Stuart, No. 11, p. 16,” sze). 
I have examined the type specimen (‘‘unicum” in 
Miquel’s handwriting) in Herb. Melb., #. tenwiramis, Migq., 
“Van Diemen’s Land, C. Stuart.” It has broadish 
leaves, with thickened margins, is in flower, without buds 
or fruit. It precisely matches the specimens of “ Swamp 
Gum” (F. Abbott), referred to at p. 355, as regards the 
leaves. 
I cannot see any difference between this specimen and 
R. Gunn’s No. 1112 (see Fl. Tas.). 
3. Euc..radiata, Hook. f., non. Sieb. (FI. Tas. i. 137). 
Hooker’s observations afford an excellent example of the 
difficulties (especially great in the case of the older workers) 
in dealing with plants of the amygdalina group. Inmaking 
up duplicate sets for distribution, the so-called varieties 
were either mixed a little, or, what is more probable, the

and died in 1831.
