Ten to fifteen feet high. Towards summit of Mount Bischoff, Waratah, County 

 Russell, West Tasmania (R, H. Cambage, 4103). 



Small stunted trees near summit of Mount Roland (3,700 feet), near Sheffield, 

 County Devon (R. H. Cambage, Nos. 4097 and 4099). 



Mr. L. C. Irby also collected this species near Devonport, as quoted in my 

 Tasmanian 1918 paper, page 84. 



New South Wales. 



Mallee-like, 6-8 feet high. Kydra Trigonometrical Station, Kybean (4,030 feet) 

 north-east by east of Nimitybelle (R. H. Cambage, No. 2004). This locality is in the 

 southern Monaro. 



Mr. Cambage and I (Proc. Roy. Soc. N.S.W. xxx, 192, 1905) record the species 

 also from Mount Victoria and Blackheath, in the Blue Mountains, but these plants are 

 not perfectly typical. 



AFFINITIES. 



1. With E. amygdalina Labill. 



Bentham (B.F1. iii, 203), comparing it with E. amygdalina, says, " Leaves broader 

 and more rigid. Peduncles and pedicels shorter. Flowers rather longer." 



From the three allied species, E. amygdalina, E. radiata, and E. numerosa, it is 

 sharply separated by its broad juvenile foliage. Of these three it is closest allied to 

 E. amygdalina, but it is usually a smaller plant, and Bentham has already stated some 

 of the differences.
