Northern Territory. 



Specimens of the type, Robert Brown's 4782, collected by Ferd. Bauer and 

 himself, " North Coast, Carpentaria, 1802-5," and labelled by Brown E. hispida, were 

 distributed by the British Museum in the J. J. Bennett (1876) distribution as 

 " E. setosa Schauer (hispida R.Br.)." The name, therefore, must be recorded, to save 

 confusion, although it was never published with a description. 



A specimen of E. setosa in Herb. Vindob. ex Herb. Bauer (Ferd. Bauer, del. 

 No. 43 ?) bears also the name E. hispida Tausch. 



Other Gulf of Carpentaria localities are : — 



Sweer's Island (Henne). 



The late Prof. Ralph Tate was in Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, in 1881, and 

 he gave me some fruits labelled "Eucalyptus Foelschiana F.v.M., Arnheim (Arnhem's) 

 Land, Ralph Tate." They are really E. setosa, but became mislaid because of the 

 erroneous label. They remind one of the Broome, W.A., specimens (fig. 8d, Plate 158), 

 but they are larger (being up to 1-fe inches long), more urceolate, and with pedicels up 

 to f inch long. • 



Then I have specimens from N. Territory, " north of 15°" (W. S. Campbell). 



Bridge Creek, Darwin (Burkitt, from Melbourne Herbarium). 



Foot-hills, Stapleton (G. F. Hill). Woolngi (Dr. H. I. Jensen). A pipy piece of 

 a limb received with this specimen has flaky bark (of the Woolly Butt character). 



Brock's Creek (Dr. H. I. Jensen, C. E. F. Allen's No. 304). 



Pine Creek Railway (E. J. Dunn, R. J. Winters). 



Scrubby tree, with stem of 6 or 7 inches in diameter. Tanami Tin-field (Dr. 

 Jensen, No. 204 of C. E. F. Allen). 



Camp iv, Northern Territory Survey, 29th June, 1911. A single fruit and leaves 

 (G. F. Hill, No. 398). 



Forty miles N.N.W. of Meyer's Hill, 2nd June, 1911. Up to 40 feet; rough 



stem. (G. F. Hill, No. 241a.) Fruits and leaves only. Fruits smaller and more 



glabrous than any I have previously seen. When complete material is available it 



may be worthy of consideration as to whether this form is worthy of indication as a 



variety. 



Queensland. 



It is growing in and around the town of Normanton, on a mixed siliceous and 

 ironstone formation, and was not noticed to the eastward near Croydon or Georgetown 

 (R, H. Cambage). Croydon (James Gill; J. A. C. Wilson, the latter from C. T. White).
