iar east from that point, even into the most Eastern State, 

 New South Wales. The fruits are variable in size and shape, 

 hut unfortunately Labillardiere does not figure the fruits, so 

 that a certain amount of conjecture surrounds the form 

 published. 



The large coarse-ribbed fruit and the two smooth capsules 

 are delineated by Mueller in his "Eucalyptographia" (the 

 three left figures are all found in South Australia). 



Maiden, in his "Crit. Rev. Gen. Euc," vol. i., under 

 this species describes a large number of varieties, with fruits 

 varying from 1 in. long and \ in. diameter to a small pilular 

 specimen about \ in. long and \ in. diameter, including 

 E. dumosa, which we, however, regard as a separate species. 



17. Eucalyptus Woollsiana, R. T. B. 



There appears to have been some confusion in the past 

 between this species and its congeners, for that figured by 

 •J. E. Brown, "Forest Flora of South Australia," under E. 

 odorata is this species. Specimens were received which match 

 the type collected in New South Wales. 



It is botanically and chemically described in our work, 

 "Eucalypts and their Essential Oils," p. 132. 



18. Eucalyptus albens, Miq. 



"White Box." 



There is a specimen in the National Herbarium, Mel- 

 bourne, collected by J. E. Brown, with locality Wirrabara, 

 South Australia, so that if this specimen is authentic this 

 species should be added to the South Australian flora. 



The chemistry of this species will be found in our work, 

 ""Eucalypts and their Essential Oils," p. 134. 



19. Eucalyptus hemiphloia, F. v. M. (Frag., ii., p. 62). 



"Box." 



Bentham, in his "Flora Australiensis," vol. iii., p. 216, 

 records this species for South Australia, and Tate, in his 

 "Census," lists it; but Maiden, in his "Crit. Rev. Gen. 

 Euc," vol. ii., p. 15, is inclined to think that an error is 

 recorded here, and that it is E . odorata, var. purpurascens, 

 that is indicated. 



From the material received by us from South Australia 

 only two specimens showed resemblance to this species; the 

 specimens, however, were not in mature fruit.
