A Critical Revision of the 

 genus Eucalyptus 



BY 



J. H. MAIDEN, I.S.O., F.R.S., F.L.S. 



(Lately Government Botanist of New South Wales and Director of the Botanic Gardens, Sydney). 



The author of this standard work, Mr. J. H. Maiden, I.S.O., F.R.S., F.L.S., died on 16th 

 November, 1925, at the age of 66 years. 



It is most regrettable that he did not live to see the completion of his great work, of which 

 65 Parts have already appeared, and the final Parts were prepared by him for 

 publication prior to his death. 



With the kind permission of Dr. Darnell-Smith, Director, Botanic Gardens, Sydney, this 

 and the subsequent Parts will be edited by Messrs. R. H. Cambage, C.B.E., F.L.S. , and 

 W. F. Blakely, Assistant Botanist, Botanic Gardens, both of whom have been in 

 constant touch with the late Mr. Maiden during the progress of the work

" Ages are spent in collecting materials, ages more in separating and combinin q 



them. Even when a system has been formed, there is still something to ado), to alter, 



or to reject. Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by 



antiquity, and transmits that hoard, augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages. 



In these pursuits, therefore, the first speculators lie under great disadvantages, and 



even when they fail, are entitled to praise."
