" Seeds without any expanding membrane." (" Eucalyptographia," figs. 9 and 10.) 



Fertile seeds dull; light brown, li-2 mm. long, 1-1|- mm. broad, compressed 

 pyramidal, obloug, ovate to somewhat triangular with scarcely prominent ridges, and 

 a very minute marginal fringe, wrinkled and minutely pitted rugose on the back. 

 Hiluni ventral small; testa thin. 



Sterile seeds glossy, light to dark brown, the majority small, cubiform or poly- 

 morphic, or smaller and somewhat similar in shape to the fertile seeds. 



Similar, but slightly less angular than E. botryoides. A laige number of tie 

 valves of the capsule are mixed with the seed. Wyong (J. L. Boorman, 1917). 



(e) Obscurely scurfy and minutely fringed. Hilum ventral. 



Fertile seeds light brown, 1-lJ mm. long, orbicular to somewhat compressed 

 quadrangular, with 1-3 scarcely prominent ridges.

" Seeds without any expanding membrane, the fertile much broader than the sterile seeds, and very 

 angular." (" Eucalyptographia," figs. 9 and 10.) 



Fertile seeds rather dull, light brown, 1-1| mm. long, 1 mm. broad, somewhat 

 plump, more or less orbicular in outline., with rounded angles, a few ovate or oblong, 

 with 1-3 slightly raised ridges, the margin with a minute fringe. The surface at first 

 c overed with a very minute deciduous, scurfy substance, which is more microscopic 

 and paler than that of E. punctata. Hilum ventral, very small ; testa thin. 



Sterile seeds glossy, the narrow ones reddish-brown, usually subulate to clavate, 

 2-3 mm. long, the broad ones fewer, and rarely exceeding 1 mm. long. 



The vestiture is much finer than in E. punctata and its allies. 



E. notabilis. 



Fertile seeds rather dull, light brown, 1-lJ mm. long, 1 mm. broad, somewhat 

 angular, with rather obtuse angles, and rather thick, ovate, oblong, to somewhat
