If unaccompanied by sucker leaves, I doubt if E. dives can be sometimes 

 distinguished from E. amygdalma. Mueller failed to distinguish the species, while 

 admitting a certain amount of difference amounting to a variety. 



Speaking generally, E. dives is more aromatic even than E. amygdalina. 

 The odour is different, though difficult to describe. The foliage of the former 

 species is usually broader and more glaucous than that of the latter. The fruit of 

 E. dives is usually larger ; nevertheless, all these characters have sometimes to be 

 cautiously examined when herbarium specimens of mature foliage, buds, and fruits 

 are alone available. 



2. E. vitrea, R. T. Baker. 



This tree, in bark, timber, and even fruits, resembles that of E. dives a good 

 deal. The matter has been alluded to at page 135, Part VI.
