3. With E. Gunnii, Hf.ok. f. 



A glaucous form of E. Ountiii (a smooth-bai'ked si^ecies) resembles, so far as 

 herbarium specimens are concerned, certain glaucous specimens of E. elceophora a 

 good deal. 



I will again refer to the subject when I come to E. Gunnii. 



4 and 5. With E. globulus, Labill., and E. Maideni, F.v.M. 



These are erect trees with smooth or ribbony bark, but both species some- 

 times form a scrubby growth, and in that state resemble a good deal a form of 

 E. elceophora found around Nundle, for example. The leaves also are not dissimilar, 

 while the large fruits (e.g. fig. 15, Plate 82, and 2b, Plate 83) have some resemblance 

 to fig. 12, Plate 79 {E. globulus), and fig. 11, Plate 80 (E. Maideni). The fruits of 

 the latter species are, however, usually more domed and fewer in the head than in 

 E. elceophora, but the general resemblance of the three species undoubtedly exists, 

 and will be referred to later.
