DESCRIPTION. 



CVII. Eucalyptus longifolia Link and Otto. 



It was originally described iu Enum. Ilort. Berol, ii, 29 (1822). 



This short description is in Latin, and will be found in my " Forest Flora 

 of New South Wales," vol. i, p. 3 3. An excellent plate was published by Link 

 and Otto in Icones PL Sel. 97, t. 45 (ISiG). 



Then Bentham (B.Fl. iii, 22G) published a description in English, and Mueller 

 described and figured it in his " Eucalyptographia." A plate and a full account of 

 this tree will be found in my work quoted above. 



SYNONYM. 



E. Woollsii F.v.M. (Fragm. ii, 50). 



RANGE. 



The type probably came from Port Jackson, and the species has not hitherto 

 been recorded much north of it, the Hunter River district (Raymond Terrace) being 

 the furthest recorded in that direction. Going west we have it from the foot of 

 the Blue Mountains, while southerly it keeps to the coastal strip and occurs in 

 Eastern Victoria. Following are some specific localities.

Sealers' Cove (A. W. Howitt and J. L. King); East Gippsland, without more 

 definite locality (C. Walter).
