29 



representing 32 genera, found on E. globulus cultivated in California. Thumen has 

 also recorded a species of Eucalyptus cultivated in Portugal. Six species of those 

 enumerated in Cooke and Harkness (2) have also been definitely recorded as having 

 been found in Australia, and are accordingly included in the list herewith. 



It is interesting to note that of the 35 species of Eucalyptus specifically 

 mentioned, E. globulus is the host of the largest number of species of fungi in Australia, 

 as well as in California, 12 species having been actually recorded on this host. This is 

 owing to the circumstance that tliis species was for many years the commonest species 

 cultivated abroad. E. viminalis comes next with 7 species and E. amygdalina with 4. 

 The various species of Polvporaceee are the most numerous and worst foes of Eucalypts, 

 as they attack the living trees as well as the dead wood. Even fence-rails and building 

 material after it has been dressed is frequently attacked by the Polyporaceee, and many 

 thousands of pounds worth of timber are destroyed in the course of a few years by the 

 ravages of this group alone.
