1S79. Mueller, in " Eucalyptographia " (Preface, p. 4, dated 1879), says that 

 from Bentham's " Series of Normales should be dismembered the sub-series of Cornutse, 

 to which as forming really a distinct full series the appellation ' Orthostemones ' might 

 most expressively be applied. Some further separations from the Normales may 

 aptly be effected, still . . . ." (but he does not particularise them). 



I see no advantage in substituting the term " Orthostemones " for " Cornutse," 

 and it is of course quite different from Mueller's term " Orthantheree." 



Mueller, 1884. — In 1884, in the concluding Part (X) of the " Eucalyptographia," 

 Mueller, under the caption, " The species of the genus Eucalyptus systematically 

 arranged and their leading characteristics defined," grouped them by anthers in four 

 groups, viz. :— 



I. Renantherse. 



II. Porantherse. 



III. Strongylantherse. 



IV. Orthantheree. 



(In other words, Groups III and IV take the place of Parallelantherse.) 



At the end of the lists he says, " The characteristics of aberrant forms of any 

 species are not covered by this synopsis." 



I. Renantherse. 



Anthers mostly broader than long, usually kidney-shaped, opening anteriorly by divergent, upward, 

 confluent slits. Umbels generally solitary. Fertile and sterile seeds mostly conformous. 



E. paucijlora (coriacca). E. capitellata. 



E. stellulata. E. macrorrhyncha. 



E. amygdalina. E. hcemastoma. 



E. eugenioides. E. Sieberiana. 



E. piperita. E. microcorys. 



E. pihihtris. E. marginala. 



E. acmenioides. E. Baileyana. 



E. obliqua. E. Todliana. 



E. stricta. E. cassia. 



E. angustissima. E. buprestiuvi. 



E. Oldfieldii. E. sepulcralis. 

 E. santalifolia. 



II. Porantherse. 



(Anthers not, or hardly, broader than long, usually roundish, opening by pores [always minute].) 



E. paniculata. E. uncinata. 



E. leucoxylon. ■ E. odorala. 



E. melliodora. E. larqijlorens (bicolor). 



E. polyanthema. E. hemiphloia. 



E. ochrophloia. E. Behriana. 



E. gracilis. E. popidifolia,
