358 PROCEEDINGS OF SECTION D. 
Var. 4—No. 1110, Gunn. Has very glaucous buds 
in most specimens. All the authentic specimens I have 
seen, marked ‘1110 Gunn,” or ‘“ #. radiata, var. 4, ex. 
Herb. Hook.,”’ are in bud or flower, but a specimen 
in Herb. Benth. (Kew.) ex Herb. Webb., collected by 
Labillardieére, has a single fruit. 
I label it Luc. amygdalina, Labill., with the note that it 
shows transit to #. Risdoni, var. elata. 
Var. 5—I have examined at least four authentic speci- 
mens : — 
(2) Herb. Hook. (Kew.), bearing the following in 
Gunn’s handwriting, “808 (?) Eucalyptus 
(‘radiata, var. 5,’ in Hook. f’s. handwriting) :— 
“T think this is the same as my original 808. 
At Currie’s River it formed low bushes about 5 
feet high, but occasionally a few feet higher. 
It grew in the poor sandy land near the sea.” 
Another label of Gunn’s reads, ‘“‘ Currie’s River, 
east of George Town, 24. 10. 43.” 
(6) A duplicate of (a) in Herb. Hook. In (a) and 
(5) the foliage is somewhat shining; the fruits 
are pale-brown, very shining, with dark rims, 
and are borne in profusion. 
(c) A specimen in Herb. Calcutta, ex. Herb. Hook., 
with label “ #. radiata, Sieb., var. 5, R. C. 
Gunn.” Two specimens on sheet: one in bud, 
the other in fruit. The foliage quite dull, and 
mostly narrow, but the fruits precisely those 
of (a) and (0). 
(d) A specimen in Herb. Oxon. bearing the same 
label as (c), but in bud only. Matches (a) and 
(6), as far as it goes. 
As regards var. 5, Hook. f. (Fl. Tas. 1. 137) says, “ Arbor 
elata, ad #. nitidam tendens.”’ 
Gunn’s specimens of 808 (?) are shrubby, doubtless 
owing to the situation, but #. amygdalina flowers and 
fruits when small. I think var. 5 is very close to typical 
E. amygdalina, var. nitida, taken from the description and 
Hooker’s figure. The shape and length of the leaves in the 
figure is that of the Herb. Calcutta specimen (c) alluded 
to. 
4. EF. nitida, Hook. f. (Fl. Tas. 1. 137 t. 29). 
Has very small sessile fruits, and very shining coriaceous 
leaves. Hooker’s #. nitida is founded on Gunn’s No, 808.
