Northern Territory.— -24 la. 35 miles north-west of Meyer's Hill. 2nd June, 

 1911. Broadish leaves and fruit. One small specimen. 



117. Hugh River. 21st March, 1911. Stunted scrub on stony ridges. Stem 

 covered with long flakes of smooth bark. New bark brown colour. 



Both specimens have leaves broader than the type, especially No. 241a, and 

 hence show a transition to E. Gillii Maiden. (In Ewart and Davies' "Flora of the 

 Northern Territory," p. 305.) 



Gosse's Range, Central Australia (Revs. Schwarz and Schulze ex herb. Melb. ), 

 under E. oleosa in Part XV, p. 171. 



South Australia. — The following specimens referred to under page 170 of Part 

 XV (as E. oleosa) belong to E. transcontinentalis. Port Lincoln (in part), Murray 

 Scrub, Murray Bridge, Tintinarra, Flinders Range, also near Quorn, Mt. Remarkable 

 and Crystal Brook, Roseworthy, Venus Harbour, Water Mallee (Ooldea). 



At Part XV, p. 173 (under E. oleosa var. glauca) only Ooldea is recorded. This 

 specimen, by the way, was received as " Water Mallee," meaning that it is a species 

 from which the aborigines extract water from the roots. 



Following are localities additional to those already enumerated. 



" Called ' Sand-hill Mallee,' as it is only to be found on the sand-hills of the 

 district. It does not, however, occupy the extreme top of the sand-ridges, which position 

 is always occupied by E. incrassata var. angulosa.*' Minnipa, Eyre's Peninsula (W. J. 

 Spafford, No. 16). Port Lincoln (W. Gill). 



Flinders Range (Max Koch No. 570). A Mallee, or a low stunted-looking tree, 

 Flinders Range, near Quorn (Max Koch, No. 532). Mount Remarkable, Flinders 

 Range (W. Gill). 



" Clean-branched Mallee. " Monarfco South (Dr. J. B. Cleland). River Murray, 

 12 miles east of Morgan (Dr. J. B. Cleland, Nos. 1 and 17). " Rough bark all the way 

 up." Timber of this. River Murray, chiefly 15 miles east of Morgan (Dr. J. B. Cleland, 

 No. 27). 



Victoria. — In the localities for E. oleosa, enumerated in Part XV, p. 171, it is 

 associated at Nyaah and Bumbang with E. transcontinentalis. This is* in the Mallee or 

 north-west part of the State, which should be further searched for this species. 



New South Wales. — The following localities for E. oleosa, enumerated at Part 

 XV, p. 171, belong to E. transcontinentalis. Lower Lachlan River, Coolabah and 

 Girilambone, Cobar and Wittagoona, Mount Boppy (the last interspersed with E. oleosa). 



To these may be added the following specimens from Mr. W. D. Campbell, L.S., 

 from the Narrandera district. The same gentleman forwarded E. oleosa from the 

 same localities, see p. 277. 



a. " Grows into a stunted tree, i.e., a Mallee getting large." N.W. side of Lake 

 View basin, 15 miles from Griffith.
