THE LEAF. 



(Continued from Part LXVI, p. 313.) 



MATURE LEAVES. 



Descriptions of the following mature leaves have in some cases through 

 inadvertence on my part, been omitted from the species descriptions. I have taken 

 the opportunity of offering some supplementary notes : — 



46. E. acacioides A. Cunn. 

 : ' Erect, narrow lanceolate to almost linear, under 6 inches long, mostly 2-4, 

 obtuse or acute ; petiole short ; colour rich green, but lustreless on both sides ; venation 

 obscured, lateral veins spreading ; intramarginal vein not far removed from the edge." 

 (E. T. Baker in Proc. Linn. Soc, N.S.W., XXV, 316, 1900, as E. viridis.) 



181. E. argillacea W. V. Fitzgerald. 

 Leaves glaucous. (W. V. Fitzgerald.) 



257. E. Blaxlandi Maiden and Cambage. 

 Eesemble those of typical E. capitellata. See Part VIII, p. 216. 



120. E. ccesia Benth. 



The foliage sub-glaucous, the inflorescence and fruits very glaucous. Veins very 

 conspicuous. 



8. E. coccifera Hook f . 

 " The leaves have always numerous diverging veinlets, and the juvenile foliage 

 appears constant. The leaves are broadly oblong, alternate, stalked, equal-sided, or 

 nearly so; the veinlets are very numerous and netted." (L. Eodway, Proc. Roy. Soc, 

 Tas.., 14, 1917.) 



188. E. confluens (W. V. Fitzgerald) Maiden. 

 Leaves shining. (W.V.F.) 



205. E. corymbosa Sm.

 glaucous {han those observed in the Sydney district." (W. F. Blakely and D. W. C, 

 Shiress, October, 1922.)
