Sections of the leaf taken in a similar position to that of the preceding. Anaphora 

 lanceolata. The Bloodwoods are perhaps the lowest yk-lders of an essential oil 

 amongst Eucalypts, and so the oil glands are mostly wanting. It is worthy of 

 note that the palisade layers are only developed on the upper surface, as in the 

 Angophoras. This feature is characteristic of the leaves of the Bloodwood Group. 

 The wood fibres surrounding the mid-rib are a conspicuous feature, as well ;is 

 the ducts in the bundle, and the equal development of the xylem. x 35
