8. Pileiform, or dilatation of the operculum. 

 Bentham, speaking of E. goniphocephala, speaks of it as- — 



'"' Operculum globular, very thick and hard, broader than the calyx-tube." (B. Fl. iii, 231.) 



" Sometimes the operculum is remarkable in the dilatation of its base, which notably projects over 

 the contour of the calyx-tube. One sees examples of this in E. gpmphocephala and E. robusta." (Naudin, 

 Mem. ii, 18.) 



The most obvious character is the much greater diameter of the operculum as 

 compared with the calyx-tube (cupula). The original described aptly alludes to it 

 as " pileiform," reminding one of a mushroom. To have the operculum of greater 

 diameter at all, no matter how little, is not common in Eucalyptus. There is a note 

 on E. goniphocephala in Tart XXI, p. 19, of the present work.
