Eucalyptus melanophloia, the Silver-leaved Ironbark, is a fairly 

 common tree on the lower parts of the western slopes of New 

 England, coming up from the Narromine district towards Bogga-

 again on the eastern watershed, being common on the Upper 

 Clarence east of Wilson's Downfall. Although plentiful all

 feet level. 



Casuarina Cunninghamiana(V\,iYGr Oak), though common on 

 the large creeks around liarraba and at May Vale, was absent
