E. eximia Schauer. 

 A medium-sized tree, attaining a height of 50 feet and more, conspicuous by its 

 dirty-yellow bark, variously described as Snuff-coloured and Rusty. It is pulverulent 

 and soft-flaky, not as hard as that of E. corymbosa. Timber pale-brown, becoming 

 darker towards the centre of the tree; 



E. intermedia R. T. Baker. 

 A medium-sized tree, with a light-brown fibrous bark, which is more or less 

 scaly. Timber pale-coloured in comparison with that of E. corymbosa, but has often 

 some red in it. This seems an exceptional species. 



E. lirata (W.V.F.) Maiden. 

 Height 30-40 feet, diameter 1-1|- feet. Bark rough and greyish, but soft and 

 almost friable, persistent on trunk and limbs. Timber brown. 



E. miniata A. Cunn. 

 A tree of 50-100 feet high, with a diameter up to 3 feet, bark greyish to reddish, 

 woolly fibrous to lamellar, persistent on the lower half of the trunk and sometimes 

 covering the whole of it ; the limbs always white and smooth. This bark has been 

 described in such detail at Part XXIT. p. 37, that I must refer my readers to it. 



E. peltata Benth. 

 A medium-sized tree, known as Yellow-Jack from the yellowish colour of its 

 scaly bark, a little more flaky than that of E. corymbosa. The timber is pale towards 

 the outside of the tree, but dark brown towards the centre of the tree. 



E. phcenicea F.v.M. 

 Bark resembling that of E. miniata a good deal, which see. 



K. -i m i i.i- Maiden. 

 A tree ol medium size; notes on bark and timber uncertain, but probably 

 closely related to E. peltata. 



E. TRACHYPHLOIA F.V.M. 



A medium-sized or tall tree, attaining a height of 80 feet. Bark whitish or 

 yellowish, flaky or flaky-fibrous. Timber pale-coloured, somewhat like that of Spotted 

 Gum [E. maculata).
