He then proceeds to quote the cases of E. cordata, tetrayona, redunca, viargmaia, 

 and occidentalis. 



" Flowering in a shrubljy state " a (favourite expression of Mueller's), may 

 not be identical with flowering while the leaves are in a retarded or juvenile state, but 

 in a number of cases this is so. Of course some species are normally shrubljy, and not 

 because of nanism. In the following list I will indicate l\v (S) where I do not give 

 further information, whether I have actually seen, or it has )>ccn reported to me, that 

 the flowering is in the juvenile-leaved state. 



E. Baeuerleni F.v.M. " Flowers at 5 feet." (W. Baeuerlen.) 



E. Beyeri R. T. Baker. A tree apparently referable to this species. See Part 

 XLVIII of the present work. 



E. Blakelyi Maiden. See figure 1, Plate 134, Part XXXII, for a specimen at 

 Hill End, New South Wales, flowering in the juvenile stage. 



E. Bosistoana F.v.M. Under the name E. Nepeanensis, R. T. Baker has described 

 a new species which is merely E. Bosistoana flowering while some of the foliage is in the 

 juvenile stage. 



E. calophylla R.Br. " At the east end of the Stirling Range of Western Australia, 

 I found E. calophylla as Maalok, only 5 feet high, while in Red CtUui Pass (crossing the 

 Range) the trees were very large and one decaying trunk between 5 and 6 feet in 

 diameter lay on the ground." (Dr. A. Morrison.) In the Stirling Range district I 

 also have seen this species flower in a dwarf state. Dr. G. P. U. Prior, of the Mental 

 Hospital, Rydalmere, Sydney, informs me that he has flowered E. calophijlla var. rosea 

 in two years from the solving of the seed. 



E. calycogona Tiu'cz. Figured at D, Plate 9, Part III, we have an instance of 

 inflorescence with juvenile foliage. 



E. celastroides Turcz. See fig. B, Plate 10, Part III. 



E. cinerea F.v.M. (S.) 



" E. cordata Labill. is a medium-sized tree, but often it remains shrubby. Mueller 

 writes (Eucalyptographia) ' I have rooted specimens before me, hardly 3 feet high, 

 but nevertheless bearing flowers and fruits.' " {Jtigendform., p. 17.) 



E. cosmophylla F.v.M. This is a medium-sized tree from Mount Lofty, South 

 Australia. Dr. J. B. Cleland sowed seeds on 12th May, 1912, at Neutral Bay, Port 

 Jackson. The plants flowered in 1917 and 1918. There were flower-buds on 25th 

 October, 1918. The height was 10 feet 6 inches on 8th December, 1918. 



E. diversifolia Bonpl. A cultivated plant in the Botanic Gardens, Sydney 

 (W. F. Blakely, March, 1920). 



E. dives Schauer. Mr. A. D. Hardy draws attention to the precocious blooming 

 in this species in Victoria. See Proc. Roy. Sac. Vict., XXIX (New Ser.) 170. BentHam 

 pointed out the flowering of this species as a tall shrub. (S.)
