232 J. H. MAIDEN. 



To sum up, the variety latifolia of E. decipiens (see p. 

 149, op. cit.) is the specimen that I have seen as the type 

 (of E. decipiens). It is figured at 1, Plate 63, and it includes 

 all the E. decipiens (except var. angustifolia) together 

 with all the E. concolor that I have seen. 



I, therefore, propose to amalgamate the two species, 

 and E. decipiens, Endl., is the older name (1837); E. con- 

 color, Schauer, was described in 1844. 



The only point in any way unsettled, in my opinion, is 

 the anthers, which I described (as regards concolor) at p. 

 153, and commented upon at p. 155 (op. cit.). It would 

 appear that the anthers in E. concolor are rather larger 

 and with longer slits than in E. decipiens, and not so 

 globular in shape, but in view of the more ample material 

 now available, I believe it will be found that the variation 

 in the anthers of E. decipiens is greater than was formerly 

 believed to be the case. 



The var. angustifolia of jB. decipiens comes from Cape 

 Riche, and in its typical form is certainly narrow leaved, 

 but Endlicher himself says that the leaves are variable, 

 and that is my experience. I refer to this form at p. 150 

 (op. cit.). 



In Preiss' label on the specimen of No. 241 received from 

 Dr. von Waldheim, the locality Wuljenup (see p. 149 "Grit. 

 Rev.") is crossed out, and the locality " Konkoberup " (also 

 at Cape Riche) substituted. For a note on this locality 

 see p. 244, Part xviii, " Orit. Rev." 



(c) E. goniantha, Turcz, and E. diversicolor, F.v.M. 



Bentham (B. Fl. iii, 248) records E. goniantha, Turcz., 

 from "Franklin (Frankland) River, Maxwell (in fruit only 

 with rather broad leaves)." Mueller ("Eucalyptographia" 

 under E. diversicolor) says that this specimen belongs to 

 E. diversicolor.
