I have referred to the aboriginal name " Calgargroo " under E. amjjlifolia in 

 Part XXXI, p. 22, since a specimen belonging to that species is one to which Caley 

 doubtfully attributed it. In the N.S.W. Agric. Gazette for October, 1903, p. 991, I 

 originally attributed it to E. squamosa, but am now satisfied that " Calgargroo " should 

 be given as the aboriginal name for E. Parramattensis in the counties of Cumberland 

 and Camden. 



The following five specimens were collected by the late Rev. Dr. Woolls south 

 of the Parramatta River : — 



(a) " E. tereticornis var. amblycorys " (Mueller's label). " By Bentham regarded 

 as doubtfully belonging to E. viminalis " (Mueller) near Duck River, Parramatta (Rev. 

 Dr. Woolls.). [The Duck River is a small stream which rises near Bankstown, passes 

 near the railway line at Clyde, near Granville, and. empties into the Parramatta River 

 just west of Newington.] 



(b) Another specimen, same locality and collector, has Mueller's label 

 '' Eucalyptus viminalis? (Bentham)," " most probably a state of this plant is E. pilularis 

 Sm." " A Flooded Gum." I do not understand this allusion to E. pilularis, a widely 

 different species. 



(c) Another specimen in the Melbourne Herbarium, with more pointed opercula 

 bears the label in the late Mr. J. G. Luehmann's handwriting, " Blue Mountains " 

 (perhaps a mistake). "Labelled E. viminalis by Mueller; I think it is a form of 

 tereticornis" 



Other Melbourne Herbarium labels read : — 



(d) " Labelled tereticornis by Mueller, E. saligna. Port Jackson to Blue Mountains 

 (Woolls)." (This was a phrase often adopted in the Flora Australiensis for plants 

 collected in the county of Cumberland). 



(e) " E. tereticornis var. sphoerocalyx Mueller, E. viminalis (?) of Bentham. 

 Flooded Gum, smooth bark, tree of 30-40 feet. Duck River, Parramatta (Woolls)." 



Auburn (G. Stirling Home, March 1888), is not very far away, a short distance 

 in the direction of Sydney. 



" Red Gum. Large trees of drooping habit scattered all over the low-lying 

 districts. Stems mottled grey and white. Timber soft and ringy. Centre wood 

 red." Bankstown and Cabramatta (J. L. Boorman, No. 21); also Upper Bankstown 

 (No. 6). 



All the above specimens were obtained in the watershed of the Duck River, or 

 adjacent thereto. 



The following localities show that it has been obtained close to the foot of the 

 Blue Mountains, but I do not know of any actual Blue Mountains localities :— 



Grose River, N.S.W., and banks of Nepean River, near confluence with the 

 Grose (J. H. M. and R. H. Cambage). [Robert Brown collected here about May, 1803, 

 and January, 1805, and doubtless George Caley, although I have no Caley label marked 

 Grose River.]
