508 _ J. H. MAIDEN, 
From Tanami, western Northern Territory (Dr. H. I. 
Jensen, No. 206, 1914) I have received both E. pachyphylla 
{resembling No. 371) and a small flowered E. pyriformis 
under the same number, and undoubtedly the species are 
‘Closely related. 
Mueller’s *‘ Hucalyptographia’’ plate of this rare species 
is misleading to the extent that it will cause most people to 
think that it correctly depicts his E. pachyphylla. Asa 
matter of fact, it shows a multiflowered, pedicellate form. 
To put botanists on their guard, I consider it desirable to 
indicate the plant figured by Mueller as var. pedicellata. 
20. H. PYRIFORMIS Turcz., var. KINGSMILLI var. nov. 
A shrub, or small tree attaining a height of about 20 feet, 
with rough bark on the trunk, the upper branches being 
smooth. The crimson flower-buds give the tree a most 
ornamental appearance. 
Known from the East Murchison to Lake Way, Western 
Australia. The type from close to a mining camp called 
Mount Keith, about 160 miles north of Leonora (W. Kings- 
mill, July, 1918). 
Juvenile leaves (not seen in their earliest stage, i.e. not 
quite opposite, but earlier than I have ever seen them in 
any form of E. pyriformis), narrow-lanceolate, say 4—6cm, 
long and 1 cm. in the widest part, with petioles of about 
iem:. Kqually pale green on both sides, venation not con- 
spicuous, the secondary veins at an angle of about 45° 
with the midrib. 
Mature leaves apparently not different from those of the 
normal form of EH. pyriformis. 
Flowers in an umbel usually of three, with a rounded or 
flattened peduncle of about 4 cm., with pedicels of half 
that length. Anthers as in E. pyriformis. Buds with 
calyx-tubes nearly hemispherical and about 2 cm. in
