 forming, with E. hemiphloia, E. odorata and other sj>ecies, much of the " Bos " in 

 the western country. 



New South Wales. 



West of Wyalong, "Apple Box" (R. H. Camhage). " White Box," Wyalong 

 (District Forester Osborne). 



" Biinble Box," Grenfell (District Forester Arthur Osborne). The mistake 

 of confusing this with the true Biinble Box (E. populifolia), or rather of applying 

 this name to a second Eucalypt, is common in the district, and should be discouraged. 



Weddin Forest Reserve (J.H.M.) ; Young (W. W. Froggatt) ; Cowra, a 

 " Box " with persistent bark on small branches (H. Deane). Banks of the Lachlan, 

 6 miles south-east of Cowra ; also 2 miles north-east of Cowra, a " Grey Box " or 

 "White Box" (B. H. Cambage). " Grey Box, drooping branches, bark rougher 

 than hemiphloia or its var. albens. Resembles Stuartiana so much that on the 

 Lachlan it is called ' Apple Box.' Wood much redder (sic) than ordinary Box ; 

 grey bark to top of branches." Two miles north-east of Cowra (R. H. Cambage). 



" Morongle trees." Sent by G. W. Orr from Morongle Creek, near Cowra. 

 Said to be the blacks' name, but now not in use. "Box" or "Apple" (R. H. 

 Cambage) . 



Murga (H. Deane) ; Forbes district (H. Deane; also 11. H. Cambage); Parkes 

 (H. Deane). " This is what I think is the ' Blue Box,' only the capsules are much 

 smaller than those I got in Queensland (Stanthorpe)." Forbes (A. Murphy). 



Eumungerie, Dubbo District, "White Box," (Assistant Forester A. R. 

 Samuels). "Tall pendulous trees of 40-60 feet; 4-6 feet in diameter. Known 

 locally as Blue Box and Fuzzy Box. Grows in moist sandy localities." Dubbo (J. 

 L. Boorman). Dubbo (R. H. Cambage, also J. V. de Coque). It is the "Grey

Bidden Road, 7 miles northerly from Gilgandra, sucker leaves broadish (R. 

 H. Cambage, No. 1,091). 



" Fuzzy Box," Wellington. " Formerly looked upon as E. largiflorens." 

 (Received from Rev. Dr. Woolls with this information.) Banks of Mitchell's Creek, 

 between Gulgong and Wellington (A. Murphy). The juvenile leaves very thin, 

 showing marked venation, and rather narrow. 



Gulgong (J.H.M. and J. L. Boorman). In swampy or low-lying country, 

 rarely on hills ; sometimes known as " Bastard Box." With broader leaves than 

 those of the Dubbo trees ; the juvenile leaves identical with those of the coast form, 

 even if not quite so broad. The stems of the suckers are yellow, turning red later.
