Sterile seeds glossy, dark reddish-brown, smaller than the fertile seeds and more 

 compressed. 



Seems to be allied to E. fastigata. Guyra (W. Dunn). 



E. Andrewsi. 



Fertile seeds glossy, dark brown, 1^-2 mm. long, about 1 mm. broad, somewhat 

 oblong-pyramidal, with two to four radiating ridges to obliquely triangular, a few 

 D-shaped, all minutely pitted rugose on both surfaces, the back usually broad and 

 smooth. Hilum terminal, small; testa firm. 



Sterile seeds glossy, light to dark reddish-brown, the majority somewhat D-shaped 

 to triangular, slightly smaller than the fertile seeds, a few of the narrow ones more 

 Cylindrical and about 2 mm. long. 



Near E. regnans and E. fastigata. Parish Eobertson, county Gough, Glen Innes 

 Forest District (per Forestry Commission, November, 1918). 



E. stellulata. 



" Seeds without any appendage, the sterile seeds usually not narrow." (" Eucalyptographia,"

" Seed small, from f-1 mm. long, variously angled and shaped, exalbuminous ; testa brownish, 

 smooth; hilum inconspicuous." (" On Seedlings," Sir John Lubbock, vol. i, 532.) 



Fertile seeds shiny, light brown, l|-2 mm. long, about 1 mm. broad, obliquely

 with a long, smooth, pitted back. Hilum terminal, small, paler than the thin testa. 



Sterile seeds glossy, light to dark brown, polymorphic, or somewhat similar to 

 the fertile seeds. 



Near E. fastigata. Wingello (J. L. Boorman, 1917). 



E. Moorei. 



Nearly all narrow linear seeds. 



Fertile seeds glossy, light brown, 2 mm. long, 1 mm. broad, somewhat obliquely 

 pyramidal, navicular, oblong to triangular, usually with one to four scarcely prominent 

 radiating ridges ; a few more or less cylindrical, with an oblique scar near the hilum 

 the back convexed, glossy, minutely pitted rugose. Hilum terminal, rather small- 

 testa thin. 



Sterile seeds glossy, light brown, cubiform to D-shaped, smaller than the fertile 

 seeds. 



Seems to be closely albed to E. regnans. Blackheath (J.H.M.).
