28. E. tirgata Sieb. 



From the foot to the top of Trig. Station, Kariong, 807 feet, and two other smaller 

 peaks to the south, about 6 miles west of Wondabyne railway station. On the former 

 it extends from the southern end, around the eastern side to a spur running due east. 

 It is quite possible that it extends further north on Kariong. The distance is roughly 

 about half a mile. (Blakely and Shiress.)

Queensland. — Concerning the range of this little known species, Dr. H. I. Jensen 

 writes :— "' Known as " Yellow-wood ' ; it is calciphobe, and is found on gravelly loose 

 arenaceous soils in the Carnarvon and Dividing Ranges, northern spurs and slopes, 

 Springsure, Rolleston districts, Glenhaughton, Taroom district. A central Queensland 

 species ; geological formation conglomeratic sandstones of ' Bowen ' formations and 

 on " Carboniferous-Star ' sandstone, also on metamorphic rocks, stony ground. It is 

 associated with E. trachyphloia, E. maculata, E. citriodora and E. papuuna (rarely)." 



" On useless sandstone country on Cadanga Creek, a tributary of the Burnet 

 River; also at Auburn." (H. S. Bloxsome.) I have seen Mr. Bloxsome's specimens, 

 but not Dr. Jensen's. (See also Part XLII, p. 41.) 



175. E. Websteriana Maiden. 



Western Australia, — Mr. Fitzgerald Fraser sends through Mr. W. C. Grasby this 

 rare species from the Mount Jackson district, only found on granite hills, September, 

 1919. In the following year Mr. R. J. Larsen sent it from Lake Lefroy, with the following 

 notes in his letters as to habitat, &c. : ' It grows on a granite and greenstone hill near 

 Lake Lefroy. Seems to keep to the hillsides and gullies. I have not seen it elsewhere. 

 None of the local people know anything about the shrub." He goes on to say : " Not 

 very common as far as seen. Seems to grow on the fringe of other Eucalypts and 

 further up the hillsides and nearer the barren porphyry granite ■ outcrops, being, I take 

 it, more hardy. Lake Lefroy is about 40 miles from Coolgardie. I believe it is also 

 found at Kanowna, 30 miles from Coolgardie, and Mount Jackson is 100 miles or so 

 further west still." 



These localities are as follows : — 



Lake Lefroy, lat. 31-15. long. 121-30; this is north-east of Widgiemooltha. 



Mount Jackson, lat. 30-15, long. 119-20, is between, say, Goongarrie (Kalgoorlie 

 to Menzies) and the No. 1 Rabbit-proof fence. It is almost due north of Southern 

 Cross. In other words, the species has been found along the Widgiemooltha, Coolgardie 

 Mount Jackson, an imaginary line drawn uorth-west.
