Its commonest name in New South Wales and North-eastern Victoria is 

 "Apple," but it must not be confused with A ngophora. It is the "But-But" of 

 Gippsland, as pointed out by Mr. Howitt, a designation that separates it from 

 E. cinerea. 



It is sometimes called " Woolly Butt," hut must not he confused with 

 E. longi folia. 



It is the " Apple-tree Gum " of Mr. De Coque (Journ. Boy. Soc. N.S.W., 

 xxviii, -212, 1894). 



Owing to the " Box " \E. hemiphloia) appearance of the hark, it has for 

 many years been looked upon as a Box in some districts, though an inferior one. 



Called "White Peppermint" in Xew England, in contradistinction to 

 "Black Peppermint" (E. cinerea var. nova-anglica) .

3. The description of this species under another name does not remove the

1 ami 5. It seemed to me desirable to indicate, by some name, a small-fruited 

 form of E. Stuartiana which has been found near Hassan's Walls, al Foung, and 



in several other parte of the State 



With the collection of additional material 1 found that the transition to the
