Nbw South Wales. 



Tingiringi Mount (5,400 feet), near Delegate. " Forms a Mallee scrub, 

 but sometimes single trees of 40 feet."' (W. Baeuerlen). Usually small leaves; 

 glaucous, very small young leaves. Sometimes glaucous mature foliage. Glaucous 

 twigs, inflorescence and fruits. Capsule sunk when not fully ripe. Points of valvea 

 hardly protruding. Fruits in threes. 



Wollandibby, Jindabyne (W. Baeuerlen). 12-15 feet; Little Tindery Mountain, 

 Michelago (J. L. Boorman). This brings the range considerably to the north, almost 

 to the Queanbeyan district. 



The following specimens show transit to E. rubida if only in the cordate-lanceolate 

 juvenile leaves. 



Nimbo Station, head of Queanbeyan River. '"Flooded or Cabbage Gum"; 

 smooth-barked tree, with reddish-brown flakes (H. Deane). 



I am more than ever impressed with the affinity of E. Gunnii to some other 

 forms, particularly to E. rubida. 



AFFINITIES. 



1. With E. Perriniana F.v.M. to which it is closest allied. See above, page 105. 



2, 3, 4. 5. With E. rubida Deane and Maiden; E. maculosa R. T. Baker; 



E. acervula Hook, f . ; E. eamphora R. T. Baker. 



These have been considered to be forms of E. Gunnii, and although I no longer 

 look upon them as varieties, the relationships are undoubtedly very close, and will be 

 best understood after the various species have been dealt with, viz. :— E. rubida below 

 (p. 121), and the others in the following Part (No. XXVII).
