form of the connate-petiolate leaf. [The " Eucalyptographia " plate is erroneous. 

 The adult leaves are not peltate, but lanceolate, as is shown in the present Part. 

 See p. 33 above.] 



Therefore our new species presents affinities to E. pruinosa Schauer, E. pul- 

 vigera A. Cunn., E. cor data La bill., E. macrocarpa Hook., E. ferruginea Schauer, and 

 E. setosa Schauer. 



It differs from all of them. in colour of the filaments, from E. macrocarpa it 

 is sharply separated in the size and shape of the fruits, from E. ferruginea and E. setosa 

 in the leaves, fruits, vestiture, &c. 



Then there remain E. pulvigera, E. cor data, E. pruinosa. 



From E. pulvigera it differs in the very much larger leaves of that species, in 

 the shape of the buds, slightly in the anthers (see below), in the fruits in threes. The 

 fruits are also very much larger, more hemispherical, with a defined rim, and are sessile 

 on a common peduncle. 



From E. cm-data it differs in the foliage (larger even than E. pulvigera), in the 

 fruits, which are large and almost hemispherical ; the other characters are those of 

 E. pulvigera. 



The anthers of E. pulvigera and E. cor data are identical. They also very strongly 

 resemble those of E. Morrisoni, but they appear to differ in having a smaller gland 

 and in being more versatile. 



From E. pruinosa it differs in the very much larger leaves (usually elliptical 

 or tending to lanceolate), larger and more numerous flowers and fruits. The fruits 

 also have a well-defined rim, and, like the branchlets and pedicels, are more or less 

 angular. The two species are sharply different in the anthers, which, in the case of 

 E. pruinosa, belong to a section with a small gland at the top and small openings of 

 anthers."
