which, had his field-memories not failed him, he would certainly not have placed with 

 those trees. In the Pachyphloise, in 1884. he had only one species, rather an absurd 

 arrangement, viz., E. ptychocarpa, which I have placed in the Lepidophloia?. 



The timbers vary from almost white to pale reddish brown, but never become 

 a real red. 



I place the following in the Pachyphloise : — 



E. acmenioides Schauer. 

 E. Blaxlandi Maiden and Cambage. 

 E. capitellata Sm. 

 E. eugenioides Sieb. 

 . E. Icevopinea B. T. Baker. 

 E. macrorrhyncha F.v.M. 

 E. Muelleriana Howitt. 

 E. obliqua L'Herit. 

 E. umbra B. T. Baker. 



As a sub-section we have : — 



a. Mallee-like or dwarf forms, comprising: — 



E. alpina Lindl. 



E. Camfieldi Maiden. 



E. ligustrina DC. 



Small as these species are, they have flattish, thin barks, wbich can be at cnce 

 seen to be Strmgybarks. 



E. acmenioides Schauer. 

 "' White Mahogany." A tall, erect tree, with fibrous bark, thinner than that 

 of a Stringybark — between that and a Peppermint, but, on the whole, belonging to 

 the former. 



E. Blaxlandi Maiden and Cambage. 

 A medium-sized tree. A typical Stringybark. This and the following four 

 species are very closely related. 



E. CAPITELLATA Sm. 



A medium-sized tree, a typical Stringybark. 



E. eugenioides Sieb. 

 A medium-sized tree, a typical Stringybark. 



E. l^voplnea E. T. Baker. 

 A medium-sized tree, with sub-glaucous foliage, which gives it the name of 

 " Silver-topped Stringybark." 



E. MACRORRHYNCHA F.V.M. 



A rather tall, typical Stringybark, with exceptionally slender, pendulous 

 branchlets. 



E. Muelleriana Howitt. 



A Stringybark of rather large size. Bark often yellow, particularly the inner 

 bark.
