■ 6. E, setosa, Schauer. A sessile cordate, Angophoroid 
species with bristlv branchlets, from Queensland and North 
Australia. Then we have, in a class by itself — 
7. E. perfoliata, R. Br., with very large perfoliate connate 
leaves and fruits. 
In this case two opposite leaves cohere into a single lamella 
which is pierced by the stem. From Western Australia. 
8. E. gamophylla, F. v. M., as figured by Mueller in 
Eucalyptographia shows no stalked leaves, but it becomes eventu- 
ally lanceolate and very shortly stalked. See a specimen from 
Central Australia collected byC. Winnecke about 1884 (Herb. Melb.), 
thus leaving E. perfoliata the only connate-leaved species to date. 
9. E. peltata, Benth., is worthy of special mention. Its 
leaves are alternate, peltately attached to the petiole above the 
base, and broadly ovate. This unique species is figured in 
Eucalyptographia and morphologically it is an incipient form of 
the connate-petiolate leaf. 
Therefore our new species presents affinities to — 
E. pruinosa, Schauer. 
E. pitlvigera, A. Cunn. 
E. cordata, Labill. 
E. macrocarpa, Hook. 
E. ferruginea, Schauer. 
E. setosa, Schauer. 
It differs from all of them in colour of the filaments, from 
E. macrocarpa it is sharply separated in the size and shape of the 
fruits, from E. ferruginea and E. setosa in the leaves, fruits, 
vestiture, etc. 
Then there remain E. pitlvigera, E. cordata, E. pruinosa. 
From E. pitlvigera it differs in the very much larger leaves 
of that species, in the shape of the buds, slightly in the anthers 
(see below), in the fruits in threes ; the fruits are also very much 
larger, more hemispherical, with a defined rim, and are sessile 
on a common peduncle. 
From E. cordata it differs in the foliage (larger even than /:. 
pitlvigera ), in the fruits, which are large and almost hemispherical ; 
the other characters are those of E. pulvigera. 
The anthers of E. pulvigera and E. cordata are identical. 
They also very strongly resemble those of E. Morrisoni, but they 
appear to differ in having a smaller gland and in being more 
versatile. 
From E. pruinosa it differs in the very much larger leaves 
(usually elliptical or tending to lanceolate), larger and more 
numerous flowers and fruits. The fruits also have a well defined 
rim, and, like the branchlets and pedicels, are more or less angular. 
The two species are sharply different in the anthers, which 
in the case of E. pruinosa belong to a section with a small gland 
at the top and small openings of anthers.
