RANGE. 



Only known from King's Tableland, Wentworth Falls, Bine Mountains, N.S.W., 

 where it grows in association with, other small species, such as E. Moorei, E. ligustrina, 

 and E. stricta. (D. W. C. Shiress and W. F. Blakely, May, 1921 ; D.W.C.S., January, 

 1924.) 



AFFINITIES. 



1. With E. ligustrina D.C. 



Both are dwarf species, but E. cequans seems to differ from E. ligustrina in every 

 character except in the shape of the fruits. The small dainty cordate juvenile leaves 

 of E. ligustrina are very dissimilar from the lanceolate juvenile leaves of E. cequans. 



2. With E. Kybeanensis Maiden and Cambage. 



This is also a dwarf species, Avith narrow leaves, but the buds are almost globular 

 and not cylindrical and acute like the buds of E. cequans. 



The fruits of the latter are also smaller and thinner than those of the former.
