BOTANICAL NOTES, 
Myetace*. 
Eucalyptus trachyphloia, F.v.M. 
This species has been collected at Cox's Gap, Murrumbo, Goul- 
burn River (R.T.B.), and now is recorded for the first time for 
N.S.W. Its fruit and bark very much resemble some forms of 
E. corymbosa, to which it is very closely related. 
apocyne^e. 
Chilocarpus australis, F.v.M. 
In all the published descriptions of this species the flowers are 
stated to be yellow. We have now to record a white flowering 
form from Woodburn, Richmond River. 
MONIMIACEiE. 
PlPTOCALYX MOOREI, X)liv. 
(Plate xli.) 
It is only within the last few months that the fruits of this 
species have been brought to light. The plant has been known 
for many years, but has recently come into prominence through 
its bitter leaves, which have been introduced into Europe as a 
substitute for hops (Agricultural Gazette of N.S.W. v. 545). It 
has been recently figured, but without the fruits, in Hooker's 
Icones Plantarum (Yol. iv. Part 3, PI. 2367). The plant figured 
differs from our specimens in being glabrous, while all known to 
us are rusty pubescent. 
The fruiting perianth is oval in shape with a constricted base, 
and measures scarcely 2 lines in length and 1 line in diameter; 
colour purple when fully ripe, glabrous, fleshy with a hard 
muricate endocarp. 
Seed with a membranous testa, pendulous from the apex of the 
cavity with a short hilum.
