RANGE. 



In the present state of our knowledge, it appears to extend from Dimboola in 

 Victoria to southern Queensland. 



Victoria.— Dimboola (F. Eeader). The buds are almost identical with those 

 from Burragorang. 



New South Wales.— Southern Localities— Near Goulburn (Dr. J. B. Cleland). 

 Buds and fruits almost the same as the type. Barber's Creek or Tallong (H. J. Rumsey). 

 Also labelled by Mr. Baker as the type. Sutton Forest (R. T. Baker). Labelled by 

 Mr. Baker as the type. Marulan (A. Murphy) ; Cobbity, banks of the Nepean ( J.H.M.) ; 

 Burragorang ( R. H. Cambage), fruit almost identical with those of the type; Kanangara 

 Walls (W. F. Blakely); Wolgan River (R. H. Cambage, No. 1549). 



Northern Localities.— Murrurundi (J.H.M. and J. L. Boorman); Moggrani 

 Mountain, Gloucester (J.H.M.) ; Upper Hastings River, cutting near Yeldham's (J.H.M.) ; 

 Taree and Gloucester (W. Heron); Armidale (W. Howitt, J.H.M.); Tamworth district 

 (R. H. Cambage); Yarrowitch (J. L. Boorman); Tia, via Walcha (J.H.M.); Walcha 

 (E. Betche, F. W. Campbell); Tenterfield (L. G. Irby); Tenterfield to Sandy Flat, near 

 Mount Spiraby (J.H.M.); Bald Knob on the Grafton-Glen Innes Road (H. T. Paton); 

 Glen Innes (N. Stewart); Glen Elgin (J. L. Boorman); Wilson's Downfall (R. H. 

 Cambage, Nos. 2822, 2826, 2839); Acacia Creek (W. Dunn); Foot of Mount Lindsay (W.

AFFINITIES. 



1. With E. eugenioides Sieb. 



The bark and timber ally it to E. eugenioides, " White Stringybark," and in 

 botanical sequence it is placed next to that species (original description). 



2. With E. lasuopinea R. T. Baker. 



The oil resembles that of E. lawopinea Baker, but no other characters connect it 

 with that species. The red rim of the fruits has evidently been the cause of the misplacing 

 of this, but it is now well known that this is a character common to a number of Eucalypts. 

 It is a feature quite absent from E. lavopinea Baker, in fact, the fruits of the two species 

 are so very different that the trees could not be synonymised with any degree of correctness 

 in specific naming. The bark, leaves, venation and timber of these trees also differ. 

 E. lavopinea Baker has a hard, compact bark right out to the branchlets, whilst this 

 tree has a light-coloured, loose, stringybark, not extending out to the limbs. It is quite 

 distinct in specific characters from the two Stringybarks described in this paper, viz., 

 E. nigra and E. umbra. (Original description).
