PLATE 189. 



E. teLragona F.v.M. (concluded'. 

 la. Leaf and fruit; 16, fruit. (Drummond's 4th Collection, No. 78.) 



2a. Fruits; 26, fruit, end on. Stirling Range (Louis Dillon). These are the largest fruits I have seen in 

 the species. 



E. eudesmioides F.v.M. 



3a. Juvenile leaves (not in the earliest stage) ; 36, buds; 3c, mature leaf and flowers ; 3d, enlarged flower, 

 in elevation ; 3e. three views of anther ; 3/, fruits. 



In considering 3i, which is enlarged, it will be observed that the top of the calyx-tube has 

 not the sunk appearance which is observable in the fruit. The explanation is that the calyx-tube 

 increases in length as ripening proceeds, but the disc remains stationary. The calyx-teeth 

 eventually become absorbed or dry up and break off. I have seen one of these four teeth alone 

 remaining on the fruit. From Mount Curious, Murchison River (Augustus Oldfield). The 

 type. 



4. Fruits, more angled than usual. Mingenew. (W. V. Fitzgerald.) 



5a, 56, 5c, 5d, he. Various stages of juvenile leaves, 5a being in the earliest stage, while 5e is most mature, 

 • but not as mature as 3c. All from Mingenew. (J.H.M.) Mingenew is on the Midland Railway 

 Line (Perth to Geraldton), and is 227 miles north of Perth. 



E. Ebbanoensis n.sp. 



6a. Mature leaf; 66, flowers; 6c, fruits. Sand Plain.E bbano, east from Mingenew. (Dr .A. Morrison.) The 

 type. 



7a. Mature leaf and buds ; 76, three views of anther ; 7c, fruits. Comet Vale, 63 miles north of Kalgoorlie. 

 (J. T. Jutson.) 



PLATE 190. 



E. Andrewsi Maiden. 



1. Fruits, pear-shaped and domed. From State Forest No. 308, parish Robertson, county of Gough, 

 N.S.W. (Forest Guard's specimen, No. 20, June, 1903.) 



2a. Front and back views of anthers ; 26, larger, pear-shaped fruits. These are up to fourteen in the head 

 from this locality. 2c, leaf in an intermediate stage. Boonoo Boonoo, Tenterfield District- 

 (J. L. Boorman.) 



3. Fruits, nearly hemispherical and slightly domed, taken from the type specimen. Tingha, N.S.W. 



(R. H. Cambage.) 



4. Fruits, flat-topped, nine in the head, taken from a co-type. Howell, near Tingha. (J.H.M.) 



5a. Juvenile leaf, almost in the intermediate stage ; 56, mature leaf ; 5c, buds ; 5d, flowers, showing styles 

 and stigmas; 5c, front and back views of anther; 5/, campanulate young fruits, a trifle 

 diagrammatic; 5g, fruits; 5/j, single fruit, both it and 5g being pear-shaped to conoid. Tenterfield, 

 N.S.W. (C. F. Laseron). All drawn from type specimens of E. campanulata R. T. Baker, 5a, 56 

 being drawn from type specimens supplied by Mr. Baker, the remainder being reproduced from 

 Mr. Baker's drawings of the type, Plate XIII, Vol. XLV, Journ. Roy. Soc. N.S.W. 



I cannot separate leaves, buds, fruits, nor any other organs of E. campanulata from 

 jG. Andrewsi, and what has doubtless misled Mr. Baker in my drawings of the type of the latter in 

 Plate 36 of the present work is the greater width of the juvenile leaf (he only depicts an inter- 

 mediate leaf), and the almost hemispherical fruits, which are only one amongst several varying 

 shapes.
