NOTES ON THE SYNONYMS. 

 1. E. pollens, DC. non P. v. M. 



E. pallens, operculo hemisphaerico submutico cupula breviore, pedunculis axillaribus compressis 

 petioli longitudine, umbellis 5-7 floris, ramulis angulatis, foliis lanceolatis acuminatis subcoriaceis 

 peimiveniis, venis ante margines confluentibus. In Nova Hollandia, Sieb. plant, exs. n. 606. Petioli 5 lin. 

 longi. Folia 5 poll, longa, basi vix obliqua, fere sesquipoll. lata, utrinque albida (De Candolle, Prodromus, 

 vol. m, p. 219). 



The specimens of Sieber's No. 606 are in early bud only. They very strongly 

 resemble specimens of 17. obliqua from the Goulburn (N.S.W.) district. 



Superficially they perhaps as strongly resemble specimens in a similar stage 

 from JE. dives, but I have no hesitation in saying that the determination of JE. dives 

 is much less likely as the leaves possess very little aroma when crushed. Sieber was 

 known to have collected in the Goulburn district. 



The specimen, figured in Plate 7, fig. 1, shows transit to JE. virgata, and 

 affords a very good instance of the difficulties surrounding many plants that depart 

 from types in the RenoMherece. 



p 



The drying pale (referred to in the specific name) of the leaves is not unusual 

 in many species of the Benantherece.
