AFFINITIES. 



1. With E. paniculata, Sm. 



The differences have been indicated to some extent already. E. inmiculata is 

 a straight-growing Ironbark, Avhile E. fasciculosa is a somewhat gnarled and even 

 stunted White Gum. 



2. With E. intertexta, R.T.Baker. 



These will be dealt with when E. intertexta is figured. Tlie readiest method 

 of separating them is by the anthers if flowers be available, for they resemble each 

 other very strongly in timber, bark, foliage, fruits. 



3. With E. Baueriana, Schauer, var. conica, Maiden. 



The bark is fibrous (box-like) in this variety and smoothish in E. fasciculosa ; 

 the timber of the former is pale-brown, and that of the latter deep reddish-brown. 

 The juvenile leaves of var. conica are thinnish and narro\\ er, the mature leaves 

 are thinner, the operculum is shorter in comparison with the calyx. The anthers of 

 the two trees are a good deal similar, and buds and fruits often display considerable 

 resemblance — so much so that they can le readily confused.
