NOTES ON THE SYNONYMS. 



1. E. pallens, DC. uon E. v. M. 



E. pallens, operc'ulo hemisphacrieo submutico cupula breviore, pedunculis axillaribus compressis 

 jietioli longitudine, umbellis .5-7 floris, nimulis angulatis, foliis lanceolatis acuminatis subcoriaceis 

 penniveniis, venis ante margiiies coiifluentibus. In Nova Hollandia, Sieb. plant, exs. n. 606. Petioli 5 lin. 

 longi. Folia 5 poll, longa, basi vix obliqua, fere sescjuipoll. lata, utrinque albida (De Candolle, Prodromus, 

 vol. Ill, p. 219). 



The specimens of Siebcr's No. 606 arc in early bud only. They very strongly 

 reseniljle specimens of E. obliqua from the Goulburn (N.S.W.) district. 



Superficially they perhaps as strongly resemble specimens in a similar stage 

 from E. dices, but I have no liesitation in saying that the det(>rmination of E. dives 

 is much loss likely as the leaves possess very little aroma Avheu cruslied. Sieber was 

 known to liavc collected in the Cioul])uni district. 



TIk; specimen, ligured in Plate 7, lig. 1, shows transit to E. virgata, and 

 affords a very good instance of the difficulties surrounding many plants that depart 

 from types in the Reiwntheveiv. 



The drying pale (referred to in the specific name) of the leaves is not unusual 

 in many species of the llenantherece.
