C— Non-Eiicalypts described as Eucalypts. 



The following non-Eucalypts have been describod or referred to as Eucalyptus. 



The following three specimens are from Herb. Vindob : — 



1. E. saUgua, Hort. Berlin (labelled E. saligna, Sm.). 



2. Melrosideros saligna (in 18th century handwriting). 



3. Eucalyptus resinifera, Hort. Argentorat et Nessler (sic.) ded. Sept., 1828. 



These are all Agonisjlexuosa, DC. 



The prominent wing on the young branchlets of the var. latifoUa is often 

 very faint on the common narrow-leaved form, but always discernible. Bentham 

 omits this character in Fl. Aust. 



4. E. microphi/lla, AVilld. 



" E. mir.ropliijUa, W.E., 515. Eol. pet, l" longo, lamina 1' 4" Iga. 4" lata, 

 apice falcata, in ramulis conferta parva." (Link's Enum. 3ort. Berol., 225.) 



Bentham says this is probably not a Eucalyptus at all. I have seen a 

 specimen (in loaf only) in Herb. Vindob. doubtfully referred to this sj^ecies, and I 

 agree with him. 



5. Sieber's No. 471. 



"E. Mspkla, Sm. De la Nouvelle Hollande. No. 471, M. Sieber, 1825," 

 in Herb. Barbey-Boissier is Angophova cordifulia, Cav. 



6. E. hirsuta, Link. 



" 229. E. hirsuta. Eoliis subpetiolatis cordatis obtusis, subtus nervis 

 pubescentibus ramis pedunculisque strigosis. Hab. in Australia. Kami strigis 

 longis densis rubescentibus patentibus. Eol. petiolo brevissimo, lamina 3' Iga., 

 1' 6" lata, juniora pubescentia rubescentia, adultiora subtus tantum in nervis 

 pubescentia discoloi-a. Pedunculi 1' longi triflori, pedicelli 8" longi. Operculum 

 heuiispliaericum." (Link's Enumevatio Hort. Berol., ii, 31.) This is Angophora 

 cordifolia Cav.
