2. E. piperita, Sm. ; var. pauciflora. 



This is the name as given in DC. Prod, iii, 219, 



3. E. submultiplinervis, Miq. 



34. Eucalyptus submultiplinervis, Miq., n. sp., ramulis gracilibus teretiusculus vel hie illic angulatis, 

 foliis e basi attenuata lanceolatis breviter acutis, herbaceo-eoriaceis, venis plerisque adscendentibus versus 

 basin adproximatis utrinque distinctis submultiplinervis, marginibus subincrassatis subfuscescentibus, 

 pedunculis rugosis 5-10 floris, floribus subsessilibus, calycis tubo obpyramidato-turbinato striato-sulcato 

 glanduloso, operculo brevi-hemisphaerico subumbilicato quam tubus breviore, antheris albidis didymis. 

 Van Diemansland (Stuart n. 10, 13, 14, 15) — Petioli circiter semipollicares antioe canaliculati, angulosi. 

 Pedunculi 3-4 lin. longi. Flores 2£ lin. ajquantes. Forma prassertim quod a flores minor : E. sylvieultrix, 

 Mull. Herb.— {Nederl. Kruidk. Arch., iv, 138, 1856.) 



4s. E. sylvieultrix, F.v.M., is briefly referred to in the preceding paragraph. 

 Bentham also noticed it : — 



E. submultiplinervis, Miq. in Ned. Kruidk. Arch., iv, 138, or E. sylvieultrix, F. Muell. in Herb. 

 Sond., is a narrow straight-leaved variety, with the flowers of the ordinary size. — (B.F1. iii, 201.) 



Following are the specimens on which the names submultiplinervis and 

 sylvieultrix were founded : — 



(a) Specn. No. 34 (species number in Ned. Kruidk. Arch. iv). " Eucalyptus 

 sylvieultrix, Ferd. Mueller, Tasmania, in Mueller's handwriting, and E. 

 submultiplinervis, forma minor" in that of Miquel, have buds, and are 

 undoubtedly coriacea as so marked by Bentham on the specimen. 



I fail to see that Miquel's forma minor is really smaller than other specimens. 



(b) " E. sylvieultrix, F.v.M. Syn. E. coriacea, A. Cunn., var. sylvieultrix, 



F.v.M. (Herb. Melb.). Syn. E. multiplinervis, Miq. (Herb. Melb.) (a slip 

 of the pen for submultiplinervis). No. 765, near Woodhall, Tasmania, 

 March. Charles Stuart." 



The material of (b) is in twigs bearing leaves, very young buds, and flowers. 

 The specimens, as far as they go, in the venation of the leaves and their hooked 

 apices, their length and breadth, in the very young buds, in the calyces and flowers, 

 resemble many from New South Wales. 



5. E. phlebophylla, F.v.M. 



40. Eucalyptus phlebophylla, Ferd. Mull., Herb, ramulis teretibus fuseescentibus, foliis longiuscule 

 petiolatis lanceolatis vel oblongo-lanceolatis in apiculum tenuem fuscum curvulum exeuntibus, basi 

 attenuata insequilateris, vulgo totis falcato-curvatis, rigide coriaceis, punctatis, venis plurimis e basi ortis 

 submultiplinervis, umbellis axillaribus et terminalibus confertis, 3-5 floris, pedunculis pruinosis, floribus 

 sessilibus, calyce obovato-turbinato. Crescit in montibus Buffalo Range (F. Miiller). Van Diemansland 

 (Stuart). 



Petioli ^-fpoll. longi rugosuli, in siccis pallidi vel f usculi ; folia 3-7 poll, longa, 1| lata; pedunculi 

 2-3 lin. ; calycis tubus in fructu 2 lin. sequans. — (Ex. Miq. in Nederl. Kruidk. Arch, iv, 140, 1856.)
