66. 2?. melliodora A. Cunn. 

 Petiolate, thinnish, ovoid to ovoid-lanceolate, glaucous to glabrous, the intra- 

 marginal vein so distant and so regularly disposed with respect to the edge that it 

 affords one of the best examples of a triplinerved leaf in Eucalyptus; the other veins 

 not very conspicuous, and making an angle of about 40 to 45 degrees with the midrib- 

 See figs, la and 4, Plate 61. 



49. E. microtheca F.v.M. 



Shortly petiolate, dull green, not glaucous, lanceolate, apex blunt, intramarginal 

 vein close to the margin, the secondary veins moderately distinct and at an angle of 

 about 45 to 55 degrees with the midrib. Fig. 16 and 17, Plate 52. 



198. E. Moorei Maiden and Cambage. 



The thickish juvenile leaves have two aspects. The following are from Hartley 

 Vale, Blue Mountains (W. F. Blakely), and are doubtless more or less concerned with 

 the impossibility of making a hard and fast line between the juvenile and intermediate 

 leaf :- 



(a) 2-3 cm. long, about *5 cm. broad, lanceolate, prominently black-dotted, sessile, 



venation scarcely evident. 



(b) Much larger, more pointed at the apex, and broadish at the base, sessile, or 



nearly so. Secondary veins at an angle of 10-15 degrees with the midrib. 

 See also Part XXXVIII, p. 218. 



18. E. Mudleriana Howitt. 



Sessile, lanceolate to broadly lanceolate, thin, underside pale, intramarginal 

 vein somewhat distant from the edge, midrib pale brown, secondary veins forming an 

 angle of 40 degrees with the midrib. Sparsely besprinkled with stellate hairs. See 

 fig. 1, Plate 2. 



296. E. Mundijongensis Maiden. 



Shortly petiolate, thin, equally green on both sides, ovate to broadly ovate, 

 early becoming apiculate, intramarginal vein at a considerable distance from the edge; 

 secondary veins curved to spreading, and at an angle of about 50 to 60 degrees with 

 the midrib. 



A juvenile leaf, not quite in its earliest stage, is depicted at fig. 11, Plate 140, 

 under the name E. redunca, but it really came from the type tree of E. Mundijongensis . 



The so-called juvenile leaves already described at p. 305, Part L, are intermediate 

 leaves.
