the basis of the name E. leptophleba attached by O'Shanesy 

 to a Blaekbutt whose timber and bark he describes. He 

 says, " dispersed through the scrubby country westward 

 from Goganjo." 



It is therefore widely diffused in the warmer parts of 

 Queensland, but we do not know its precise range yet. 



Affinity. It would appear to take the place, in Queens- 

 land, of the more southern E. polyanthemos, Schauer, or 

 rather of its narrow-leaved forms. The anthers, however, 

 sharply separate them. 



The leaves also are different both in shape and venation. 

 The rough bark is more scaly than that of E. polyanthemos, 

 and the line of demarcation more clearly defined. 



It is named in honor of Mr. Richard Hind Cambage, who 

 has done valuable work in connection with this genus. 

 E. Cambagei, Deane and Maiden, is conspecific with E. 

 elceophora, P.v.M. 



E. pilularis, Sm. var pyriformis, nov. var. 



Bucca Creek, near Coff's Harbour, N. S. Wales. (A. H. 

 Lawrence, J. L. Boorman). 



Type, J. L. Boorman, June, 1911. 



A tall, sound "Blaekbutt " 4 to 7 feet in diameter, bark 

 ribbon y up to or beyond the third or fourth branches. Bark 

 on the butt similar to that of the normal species. Branchlets 

 often glaucous and double opercula common. 



Fruit large, often pyriform, commonly 1*5 cm. long x 

 1 cm. broad in the dried state.
