The coastal localities, Fowler's Bay, &c, connect with the Western Australian 

 ones, while those of Eyre's Peninsula, the Flinders Range, and those of eastern South 

 Australia, particularly those approaching the Murray, naturally connect up with the 

 Victorian and New South Wales localities. 



Victoria.— In Part XV, p. 171, all the Victorian specimens attributed to E. oleosa 

 belong to that species, but in the Nyaah and Bumbang localities, E. transcontinentalis 

 also occurs. These are in the Mallee or north-western district of Victoria, and connect 

 with the eastern South Australian specimens on the one side, and with the New South 

 Wales ones on the other. 



New South Wales. — The following specimens recorded as E. oleosa in Part XV, 

 p. 171, belong to that species— Abbott's Tank, Condobolin, Wyalong; Mt. Boppy 

 (with E. transcontinentalis).
