 by Mueller " E. jmchijphyUa F.v.M. (Strongylanthercie), AV. H. Cornish, 1885," precisely 

 matches the flowering specimen (Glen of Palms, E. Giles) inihe "Eucalyptographia" plate. 

 Figured at Ga-Gd, Plate 75. This is the plant referred to as from the Mulligan River, 

 AVestern Queensland, this woric, Part XVIT, p. 235. 



RANGK (of var. sessilis var. nov.). 

 Northern Territory. 



" AV. Austral. Expedition, Glen of Palms, E. Giles, 1872,'' inLuehmann's writing. 

 " E. pachyphjUa F.M." in Mueller's writing. 



These specimens are in flower and bud only, are sessile, and are interesting 

 because in Fragm. x, 5 (1876), Mueller first described the flowers (5-7 and nearly sessile) 

 from them. I look upon them as quite sessile, and they are depicted in Mueller's 

 " Eucalyptographia " plate (flowers and buds only). 



Glen of Palms is on the Finke River, just south of the KrichaufE Range. It 

 formed Camp 44, Horn Expedition. In the report of this Expedition, Botany, by 

 Prof. R. Tate, at p. 158, he records Giles' specimen, and also Krichauf! Range (Kempe), 

 a specimen to be presently referred to ; also gorge of Reedy Creek, ravine on south 

 side of Mt. Tate, on Mt. Sonder, all locaHties in the Macdonnell Ranges. 



The Rev. H. Kempe, the collector above referred to, was located at the Moravian 

 Mission Station, Hermannsburg, on the northern side of the Finke River, and about 

 1 mile north of the Krichauff Range. It was abandoned as a Mission Station in the 

 early " nineties." See Report, Horn Exped., p. 48. There is a survey of the Station 

 and its surroundings in Mr. C. AVinnecke's Report of the Expedition. 



Immature (some slightly glaucous) fruits, Finke River (Kempe, 1880), are, as 

 regards some of them, very fairly represented by 66, Plate 75 ; fruits immature, brrt a 

 little more advanced are figured herewith. 



Here we have a small fririted form. Leaves and ripe fruits, Finke River (Revd. 

 AV. Schwarz, 1886) are figured herewith. Mueller does not appear to have referred to 

 these specimens anywhere. 



15 miles west of Hugh River (a tributary of the Finke River), Macdonnell Ranges, 

 N.T. , 6th May, 1911 (G. F. Hill, No. 147). Glaucous early fruits, 40 miles west of Camp 

 IV, Lander Creek, N.T. 21st June, 1911 (G. F. Hill, No. 361). Flowers with most 

 of the stamens dropped. 



Still in the Macdonnell Ranges, at p. 35 of the Horn Expedition Report, we have 

 " June 17, 1894, Horn Exped., Camp 33, Deering Creek, height 2,210 feet. Ti'avelled 

 over sandridges covered with .... -.mdMAlhe (Eiiccdyjitus 2)(icIry2^hi/Uay'

 AVinnecke's on the Marshall." (Lieut. Dittrich.)
