Glencoe, 15 miles from Mt. Gambier (W. Gill). The leaves are largish (neither 

 broad nor narrow) and undulate (Fig. 2, Plate 114), and the buds and fruits very large. 

 Except in size, they have the pointed and narrowed operculum common in E. camphora, 

 differing only in size. The fruits are undoubtedly of the ovata type, with a tendency 

 to the urceolate form so common in the species. Specimens with buds and fruits so 

 large might be known as variety grandiflora. 



New South Wales. 



Southern localities.—" White Gum " (No. 2 of my notes), Brown's Camp, Delegate 

 (W. Baeuerlen). Quite glabrous, many-flowered, operculum conical ; nearly ripe fruit 

 available, less conoid than usual ; young leaves oblong-cordate, quite glabrous. Mr t 

 Baeuerlen looked upon this as a hybrid. 



Delegate River. 3,000 feet. Bark deciduous. Fruits less conoid than usual. 

 (W. Baeuerlen's No. 217, May, 1889.) Near Delegate Hill. Broad leaves (W. Forsyth). 



Delegate to Bombala. Shiny leaves getting broad, undulate (H. Deane and 

 J.H.M.). 



" Red Gum," Bombala. Bark deciduous (W. Baeuerlen, January, 1887). 



Near Cathcart (H. Deane and J.H.M.). Very broad, leathery leaves, lanceolate, 

 up to 4 or 5 inches long. Quite glabrous, both leaves and fruit. 



" Hickory," because the timber is very tough. Twofold Bay (Lockhart Morton). 

 " One of the largest trees of these parts." 



" 40-60 feet. Bark ribbony from the base, even up to the upper branches. 

 It has all the appearance of a " Grey Box," and is spoken of by some people as " Box," 

 by others as " Blue Gum." The timber when freshly cut is white, no sapwood or heart 

 wood varying in colour. Exceedingly soft and straight-grained." Wyndham, near 

 Pambula (J. L. Boorman). 



Intermediate leaves large, and in no way that I can see differing from those of 

 E. camphora. Fruits conoid, valves sunk. Yarrangobilly, near descent to Caves 

 (A. W. Howitt) ; Bega (W. D. Francis). 



" Cabbage Gum," Nimbo Station, head of Queanbeyan River (H. Deane). 

 " Flooded Gum," Queanbeyan (Mr. Deane's No. 413). Both these specimens are 

 identical with the Twofold Bay tree. 



Charley's Forest, Braidwood (W. Baeuerlen). One of the specimens labelled by 

 Mr. Baker E. paludosa. 



" Grey Gum," Bowning, on flats (A. Murphy). Yery similar to the Charley's 

 Forest specimen. Some of the fruits display a tendency to a goniocalyx shape. 



Very tall trees, growing in flats, stem twisted, ribbony bark, more especially the 

 tips of branches. Wingello to Barber's Creek, now Tallono (J. L. Boorman). 



" Swamp Gum," Barber's Creek (H. Rumsey) (named E. paludosa by Mr. R. T. 

 Baker). 



" Creek Gum." Limbs clean, Marulan (A. Murphy). " Yellow Gum," Barber's 

 Creek (H. Rumsey) ; Wingello ( J.H.M.).
