(a) Sub-section Graciles (4). 



(Named, from the best-known member of the Sub-section.) 



Very large white anthers, opening obliquely, filament at base, gland small or 

 absent, cells widely opened with parallel slits. 



E. calycogona. E. gracilis. 



E. celastroides. E. Pilligaensis. 



E. calycogona, celastroides, and gracilis are species so closely allied that 

 botanists followed Bentham in combining them, and only during the last few /ears 

 have I shown that they should be kept apart. 



(b) Sub-section Pyriformes (5). 



Anthers in shape a truncated cube or nearly spheroid, filament at base gland 

 in front, the cells widely opened to the base. 



E. leptopoda (?). Sometimes broadish E. pachyphylla. 



at the base, but not normal. E. Oldfieldii. 



E. macrocarpa. E. piriformis. 



These are Western Australian species (with a wider area for pachyphylla). The 

 anther is peculiar in shape and nearest to the Platyantherse. 



F. Macranther^e. 



Anthers opening in parallel slits. The gland at the back, sometimes showing 

 in front also. The filaments generally attached beneath the gland half-way up or 

 less. Versatile as a rule. 



This is a very large group, and it may be subdivided in the following manner : — 



1. Tereticornes. 



Anther lobes not quite parallel, and approximately as broad as long, but 

 frequently longer in proportion. 



Leiophloice — 



E. accedens (W.A.). E. Dalrympleana. 



E. adjuncta. E. dealbata. 



E. amplifolia. E. Deanei. 



E. Bancrofti. E. Dundasi. 



E. Blakelyi. E. Dunnii. 



E. canaliculata. E. globulus. 



E. cladocalyx. E. goniocalyx. 



E. confluens. E. grandis. 



E. cordata. E. Gunnii. 



E. corrugata. E. Houseana. 



E. cosmophylla. E. intertexta.
