NOTES ON EUCALYPTUS. 



235 



It is generally classed in the Renantherae, but I would 

 point out that it may be more fittingly termed renantheroid 

 and that its anthers are more closely allied to those of 

 E. diversicolor, F.v.M. 



(g) E. vlrgata, Sieb., var. fraxinoides, Maiden, E. fraxin- 

 oides, Deane and Maiden. (White Ash.) 

 See p. 278, Part ix of my "Grit. Rev." It is there 

 recorded from Tantawanglo Mountain near Cathcart 

 (County Wellesley). It is desirable that additional localities 

 should be recorded for this (at present) rare form, and I, 

 therefore, record it from Ph. Colombo, Co. Auckland^ 

 (Assistant Forester Harrison and Dist. Forester Clulee); 

 20 miles east of Nimitybelle, east of Great Dividing Range, 

 north-east of head of Kybean River (R. H. Cambage. No. 

 1923.) 



(h) E. oleosa, F.v.M., New for Queensland. 



In my "Grit. Rev. Genus Eucalyptus," Part xv, p. 169 v 

 I note that this species has been collected in all the States 

 except Tasmania and Queensland. It is a dry country 

 species and has now to be recorded for Queensland, having 

 been found near Jericho by J. L. Boorman. It is a Mallee, 

 and it would appear that Mallee is rare in the Northern 

 State. It grows in masses on red stony ridges around the 

 black soil of the flats, up to 10 feet high as seen. Gidgee 

 (Acacia Cambagei, R. T. Baker) and Gastrolobium grandi- 

 florum, F.v.M. grow in the immediate neighbourhood.
