RANGK (of E> pyrop/wm van polycarpd). 



The type comes from the southern portion of the Northern Territory, but it 

 occurs in " sunny places of intra-tropical New Holland/' meaning the northern parts 

 of the Northern Territory passed over by the Gregory Expedition of 1856. It also 

 probably occurs in North-western Australia. It abundantly occurs in western: New 

 South Wales, and it is not possible to behove that it is not to be found over wide areas 

 in Queensland. It is ar imperfectly known form at present. 



Western Australia. 



Perhaps the form of E. pyrophora referred to in B.FI. iii, 258, under " with rather 

 smaller flowers, Dcpuech Island, Bynoc," may be this variety. Tlie variety should be 

 searched for. 



Nortb ern Territory. 



Charlotte Waters (E. Gilcs ; in Molb. Herb.). This form will le found in many 

 pi its of the Territory yet. 



New South Wales. 



These localities, near the Darling River and beyond, will probably be also found 

 to be localities for normal E. pyrophora, for I believe that that species aiul its variety 

 polycarpa insensibly run into each other. 



Buds, Brewarrina (Henry Deane). Fruits only available, Compton Run near 

 Byrock ( Henry Deane). 



"Eucalyptus terminal-is F.v.M. (Bloodwood), found on Mount Dijou, 5 miles 

 cast, but I can hear of it nowhere south of this." (R. H. C'ambage in Proc. Linn. Soc. 

 N.S.W., xxv, 599, 1900.) 



Buds. Mt. Oxley, 40 miles south-west of Bourke (E. Betche). " A medium- 

 sized tree of 30-50 feet, The bark is thick scaly. Sap-wood thick, pale yellow, the 

 centre wood brown." Mt. Oxley near Bourke (J. L. Boorman). Buds young and 

 consequently bracts and bracteoles evident. 



Yanda (Bourke-Louth). Said to be tbc nearest point for Bloodwood, at the 

 21 i mile peg on the Louth road, on the junction of the red and black soil. There arc 

 30-40 trees, some fairly large, with clean unbranched stem 1 ;. Wood little cut here 

 (J. L. Boorman). 



Fruits. Summit (smdstone) of Trig. Station, North Louth (L. Abrahams). 

 The fruits are elongated ovoid, smooth when new, and corky scaly when old, like the 

 others. 



Buds and fruits. Paroo River district (E. Betche).
