1. With E. r os t rat a Sehlecht, 



See Part XXXIII, Plate 136. The buds of the supposed hybrid undoubtedly 

 suggest E. rostrata; there is some, but less, similarity in the juvenile leaves as regards 

 shape, but not in colour, those of E. rostrata being usually pale. The departure is 

 increased as regards the fruits and timber.

2. With E. ovata Labill. 



As regards E. ovata, see Part XXVII, Plates 113 and 114, but the buds are as 

 a rule somewhat different, while the fruits of the hybrid lack that conoid appearance 

 so common in E. ovata. The peduncles and pedicels are more slender in the hybrid, 

 which seems nearest to E. ovata of any species. 



3. With E. leucoxylon F.v.M. 



The resemblance of the local E. leucoxylon, the foliage of which seems much 

 less glaucous than is usually observable in the species, is evident. There is considerable 

 similarity in the juvenile leaves, which, in the local E. leucoxylon seem to be broader, 

 more reniform and more pointed than in E. Studleyensis. The buds of the two species 

 are a good deal similar, but if figs. 3c, 4, 3, 6, Plate 56, Part XII, be turned to, it will 

 be seen that the fruits are somewhat similar, but more urceolate in E. Studleyensis.
