 collected by Vidal y Soler in 1886 at Angat, Prov. Bulacân. 



1071. Eucalyptus Guilfoylei J. H. Maiden in Journ. West Austral. 

 Natural History Soc. Ill (1911), p. 180. — Locally called „Tingle 

 Tingle". It occurs on the edges of Karri {E. diversicolor) forrests, bet- 

 ween the Denmark River and the Leeuwin, in deep gullies. The 

 local timber-getters look upon it as a hybrid („bastard" in ordinary 

 Australian timber parlance). — Type. — Denmark, Western Australia. 

 A. Murphy, March, 1905. — Arbor altus, cortice fibrosa, ligno pallido 

 et fissile. — Foliis juvenibus tenuis, glabris, pallidioribus inferiore latere, 

 petiolatis, venis, lateralibus tere parallelis et tenuissimis. — Poliis raa- 

 turis coriaceis, iato lanceolatis, venis lateralibus tenuibus. — Pedunculis 

 angularibus gemmis operculis fere hemisphericis. Flores non vidi. — 

 Fructibus truncatis similibus piro formatis, aperte angularibus, vix 1 cm 

 longis et aliquanto minis maximo diametro. Margine depresso, apicibus 

 valvularum omnino in orificio. — Affinities. — I. With E. diversicolor 

 F. V. M. — The alfinities of the two species, as far as herbarium spe- 

 cimens are concerned, are very close. The bark of E. diversicolor is 

 smooth and the timber red; these two characters sharply diflerentiate 

 the two trees in the bush. — The seedlings of the two species are very 

 similar. — The juvenile foliage (suckers) of E. diversicolor appear to be 

 more orbicular. — The mature foliage of the two species is very similar. 

 — The buds of E. diversicolor are less angular and the operculum is 

 usually more conical. — The fruits of E. diversicolor are less pear-shaped, 

 there being a sharp accentuation between the fruit proper and the 

 distinct pedicel. When unripe there is a distinct rim and a tendency 

 to be urceolate which I have not noticed in E. Guilfoylei. — 2. With E. 

 patens. — The affinities of these two species is close, so far as her- 

 barium specimens are concerned. — The juvenile foliage of E patens 

 has the marginal rim further removed from the edge and the lateral 

 veins more prominent and looped. The juvenile leaves of E. patens are 

 sessile and even stem clasping. Those of the Tingle Tingle have a 

 fairly long petiole, and the lamina tapers towards the petiole. — The 

 mature foliage is not very dissimilar at first sight. The venation of E. 

 patens is more spreading (?), the buds less angular, the opercula more 

 pointed and the fruits larger, more spheroidal, not angled, and sharply 

 accentuated from the short pedicels. — The bark of E. patens is softer 

 and less fibrous, and the timber appears to be paler, softer, less fissile, 

 and heavier. — The bark of Blackbutt {E. patens) may be described as 

 follows. — Rough bark all over stem and branches, soft, thick, greyish 

 black, much resembling that known as Woolly-butt in the Eastern 

 States. — E. Guilfoylei has been described as resembling the Jarrah in 

 general appearance, but the bark of the Jarrah is less rough.
