 PLATE 98. 



E. robusta Sm. (1-9). 



1. Very immature fruits, urceolate, and with remarkably long peduncle. 



2. Immature fruits, ureeolate, and with marked rims. Kogarah, Sydney. (J. H. Carnfjeld.) 



3. Nearly sessile fruits. Narrawallee, Milton, N.S.W. (R. H. Cambage.) 



4. Fruits, showing well-marked rim. Port Stephens, N.S.W. (J. L. Boorman.) 



5. Fruits small, and valves well exserted. Stradbroke Island, near Brisbane, Queensland. (F. M. Bailey.) 



6. Fruits smaller than normal, and valves not exserted (the fruits are glaucous). Byron Bay, N.S.W. 



(J.H.M. and J. L. Boorman.) 

 7 a. Buds ; lb, fruits ; 7c, deeply sunk capsule, looking from top. These specimens are abnormal, and 



may show hybridism between E. robusta and E. bctryoides. 

 8a. Very small buds ; Sb, small fruits, sessile, cylindrical, and angled. The buds are small, but otherwise 



normal, but the fruits are very different from those of normal robusta, and show transit to 



bolryoid'S. 

 9. Remarkably narrow leaf, even narrower than that shown of the type (Fig. 1, Plate 97), which is the 



narrowest leaf on the original figure. As a matter of fact, the average robusta leaf is not 



narrower than Fig. 3a of Plate 97. Rose Bay, Sydney. (R. Helms.) 



E. botnjoides Sm. (10-12). 

 10a. Leaf with buds ; 106, fruits, both forming a portion of Cavauilles' drawing of Eucalyptus plalypodos 



in his " Icones," iv, tab. 341. This is not a figure of the type, but it precisely matches the type. 

 11a, 116, lie. Seedling leaves, showing variation in size and shape, "Snowy River Mahogany." Lake 



Tyers, Victoria. (H. Hopkins.) 



12. Intermediate leaf. Metung, Victoria. (A. W. Howitt.) 



PLATE 99. 



E. botryoides Sm. (1-10).

2. Unusually broad mature leaf. Burrill, Milton, N.S.W. (R. H. Cambage.) 



3a. Normal mature leaf and buds, which are almost urceolate ; 36, buds with double operculum ; 3c, 



fruits. Rockdale, near Sydney. (J. H. Camfield.) 

 4a. Buds with hemispherical operculum, calyx-tube angled, and in some specimens almost winged ; 46, 



4c, side and back views of anther. Manly, near Sydney. (Rev. Dr. Woolls.) 

 5a. Buds, with conical opercula (showing some transit to those of E. robusta) ; 56, anther ; 5c, fruits. 



Kurnell, Botany Bay, Sydney. (J. L. Boorman.) 



6. Fruits, the valves slightly exsert. Mrs. Macqu.uie s Chair, Outer Domain, Sydney. (J.H.M.) 



7. Fruits, the valves exsert. Conjola, Milton, N.S.W. (W. Heron.) In G and 7 note the Maltese Cross 



arrangement of the tips of the capsules, seen also in E. s<dit/»a and E. robusta. 

 H. Very small fruit-. .Jervis Hay, N.S.W. (J.H.M.) 

 9. Fruits larger than normal. Otford, near Sydney. (J. H. Camfield.) 



10. Bods of an imperfect specimen? showing transit to E. saHgna. Glasshouse Mountain , Queensland. 



(Dr. J. Shirley.) 



E. saligna 8m. (11-16). 



11a. Juvenile feat ; 1 16, intermediate baf ; lie, mature leaf ; I Id, buds and (lowers ; 1 lr, 1 If, front and 

 back views of anthers ; \)y, I \l<. turn- varying in size (from the same twig). Blue Gum Flat 

 (Ourimbah), near Gosford, N.S.W. (No specimen of Smith's type appears to be extant, and I 

 have assumed the above to be typical. [The figures are taken from a fine tree of the ordinary 

 New South Wales or Sydney Blue dun from a classical locality for the timber for nearly a 

 century. They precisely match specimens collected in the Porl Jackson district.) 



]j. Fruits immature. Parramatta Park. (O. I>. Evans.) 



13. Frnil I d, North of Sydney. (K. I>. 11 i 



11. Immature fruits, angled by i Burwood, Sydney. (J.H.M.) 

 15. Small, sessile fruits. Lane Cove River, Sydney. (J. H. Camfield.) 



1*5. Buds; not so sessHi Burv od, Sydney. (Rev, n>-. Woolls.)
