No specimen appears to be extant in Adelaide Herbarium 

 of this species, but in the Melbourne Herbarium there is a 

 specimen of it, labelled "W. Gill, from Mount Remarkable." 



It is botanically and chemically described in our work on 

 "Eucalypts and their Essential Oils," p. 135. 



20. Eucalyptus largiflorens, F. v. M. (Trans. Vict. Inst., 



i., 134). 



A "Red Box." 



Professor Tate records this species for South Australia 

 in his "Census," but Mr. Maiden, in his paper, "A Contri- 

 bution to the Botany of South Australian Flora" (Trans. 

 Roy. Soc. S. Aus., vol. xxxii.,. p. 280), places this species 

 under E . fasciculosa, F. v. M. Both these species are Muel- 

 ler's, and the specimens examined by us in the Tate Collec- 

 tion, Adelaide University, is Mueller's E. largiflorens. 



It is botanically and chemically described in our work 

 on "Eucalypts and their Essential Oils," under E. pendida y 



p . 71. 



21. Eucalyptus microtheca, F. v. M. (Jour. Linn. Soc, 



iii., 87). 



"Coolabah." 



This interior species of the State, as well as in New 

 South Wales, is easily distinguished from its congeners 

 by its small fruits and the comparatively large exserted 

 valves. It is probably the tallest tree of those parts. The 

 timber is very hard, interlocked, and durable, and is of a 

 pale chocolate colour. 



It is botanically and chemically described in our work, 

 "Eucalypts and their Essential Oils," p. 158. 



22. Eucalyptus elaeophora, F. v. M. (Frag, ii., p. 52). 



"Bundy." 



This species is recorded for South Australia by Tate in 

 his "Census," under the name of E. goniocalyx, F. v. M., 

 with which species it was first placed by Bentham in his 

 "Flora Australiensis,'"' vol. iii., p. 230, and acquiesced in by 

 Mueller in his "Eucalyptographia." The two, however, are 

 quite distinct, as recognized bv all later botanists.
