G— Non-Eucalypts described as Eucalypts. 



The following non-Eucalypts have been described or referred to as Eucalyptus. 



The following three specimens are from Herb. Vindob : — 

 ,1. E. saligna, Hort, Berlin (labelled E. saligna, Sm.). 



2. Metrosideros saligna (in 15th century handwriting). 



3. Eucalyptus resinifera, Hort. Argentorat et Nessler (sic.) ded. Sept., 1828. 



These are all Agonis Jlexuosa, DC. 



The prominent wing on the young branchlets of the var. latifolia is often 

 very faint on the common narrow-leaved form, but always discernible. Bentham 

 omits this character in PI. Aust. 



1. E. microphjlla, AVilld. 



" E. microphylla, W.E., 515. Pol. pet, 1" longo, lamina 1' 4" lga. 4" lata, 

 apice falcaia, in ramulis conferta parva." (Link's Enum. Sort. Berol., 225.) 



Benthnm says this is probably not a Eucalyptus at all. I have seen a 

 specimen (in leaf only) in Herb. Yindob. doubtfully referred to this species, and I 

 agree with him. 



5. Sieber's No. 471. 



" E. hispida, Sm. De la Nouvelle Hollande. No. 471, M. Sieber, 1825," 

 in Herb. Barbey-Boissier is Angophora cordifolia, Cav. 



6. E. Mrsuta, Link. 



" 229. E. Mrsuta. Eoliis subpetiolatis cordatis obtusis, subtus nervis 

 pubescentibus ramis pedunculisque strigosis. Hab. in Australia. Kami strigis 

 longis densis rubescentibus patentibus. Eol. petiolo brevissimo, lamina 3' lga., 

 1' 6" lata, juniora pubescentia rubescentia, adultiora subtus tantum in nervis 

 pubescentia discolora. Pedunculi 1' longi triflori, pedicelli 8" longi. Operculum 

 hemisphaericum." (Link's Enumeratio Hort. Berol., ii, 31.) This is Angophora 

 cordifolia Cav.
