PLATE XX. 





A TYPICAL STRINGY BARK. 



Eucalyptus eiigenioides, Sieb. 



These barks are characterised by the long fibres which intertwine and cross lattice-like, 

 forming ridges and depressions, and are reddish-brown or grey in colour. 



The oils of Eucalypts with barks of this character usually consist of pinene with cineol, 



although occasionally phellandrene occurs in those of some species. The " Stringybarks " 



seem to be the connecting group between the " Boxes " and the " Peppermints."
