Those marked with an asterisk have so far proved the most successful. 

 Above 5,000 ft. the results have not been nearly so satisfactory as they have 

 below that elevation, though this is ascribed more to poverty of soil than to 

 elevation. Species which have so far proved unsuitable for introduction on 

 a large scale are E. Imertmstoma, Sm., E. rnacrorrhynclm, F. v. M., E. Muelleriana, 

 Howett, E. obliqu/i, L'Herit., E. pauciflora, Sieb., E. pilularis, Sm., E. piperita, 

 Sm., E. Sieberiaim,, F. v. M. 



Further experiments are in progress in the Simla hills with numerous 

 other species, and these may be expected to yield definite results in due 

 course. 



4. Sub-Hinmlayan tract and plains of northern India. Eucalypts were 

 first introduced into northern India about 1860, and numerous species have 

 been tried. The reports of the Government gardens at Lucknow, Lahore, and 

 Saharanpur contain the results of various trials from time to time. In the 

 Changa Manga irrigated plantation near Lahore various species were intro- 

 duced many years ago, while more recently experiments on a considerable 

 scale have been carried out there and in the Kot Lakhpat plantation. 



Mr. R. N. Parker ^ enumerates the following species found growing on 

 the Punjab plains, which he has been able to identify with tolerable certainty, 

 though he admits that the list is by no means complete : 



E. muculata, Hook., var. citriodora, Bailey. Less common than the following 

 two in the Punjab, but the commonest species in Saharanpur and Dehra Dun. 



E. tereticornis, Sm. This and the next are the commonest species in the 

 Punjab, and have given the best results where extensive trials have been 

 made. Almost the only species in the Rawalpindi and Hazara districts. 

 Succeeds well in the Hoshiarpur district. Not common at Saharanpur and 

 Dehra Dun. 



E. rostrata, Schl. Very common on the Punjab plains ; seldom seen in 

 Rawalpindi and Hazara. Does well at Saharanpur. 



E. crebra, F. v. M. Occasionally seen in Lahore, Amritsar, Kapurthala, 

 Changa Manga, and Saharanpur. 



E. melanophloia, F. v. M. Grown in Lahore, Changa Manga, Agra, and 

 Saharanpur. 



E. saligna, Sm. Grows well at Amritsar and Saharanpur. 



E. robusta, Sm. Occasionally grown in Lahore, Kapurthala, Saharanpur, 

 and Agra.
