NOTES ON EUCALYPTUS. 



85 



My suites of specimens of the Grey Ironbark of Queens- 

 land are neither as numerous nor as complete as I would 

 like, and in some of them the anthers vary somewhat from 

 those of the anthers of the typical form of E. paniculata, 

 Sm., as found at Port Jackson, but the present state of our 

 knowledge causes me to submit that the Grey Ironbark of 

 Queensland is not specifically different from the Grey Iron- 

 bark of New South Wales, and that it is usually E. panicu- 

 late, Sm. At the same time, the term " grey " is some- 

 times given with reference to the prevailing colour of the 

 bark, and it is more or less appropriate when applied to 

 other species also. 



I desire to remark that the " egg-in-eggcup " character 

 of the operculum sometimes occurs in E. paniculata as well 

 as in E. siderophloia. 



The following are suggested as new species : — 



1. E. hybrida, n. sp. 



Type from Concord, Sydney, N.S.W. (Rev. Dr. Woolls, 

 1890 ; R. H. Cambage, 10th February 1901). 



Arbor erecta, altitudine circiter 50 pedes. Cortex cinerea, lsevis, 

 corrugata. Lignum pallidum, durum. Folia matura laneeolata 

 vel late laneeolata, pallida virentia, tenuiora, circiter 8-12 cm. 

 longa, vena peripherica margini approximata, venis lateralibus 

 patentibus. Flores in breve panicula corymbosa, quaque plerum- 

 que 3-6 flora. Calycis tubus conoideus. Operculum acuminatum, 

 calcis tubo sequilongum. Fructus cylindrico-conoidei, circiter 6 mm, 

 lati, in orificium leniter contracti, margine tenui. Valvarum 

 apices plusve minusve depressi, orificium rare tangentes. 



Mr. Henry Deane 1 and I drew attention to a BucaJypt 

 which we had received from Mr. R. H. Cambage, and which
