Clelandi, which is more fibrous flaky than the present form. 
Goongarrie, 54 miles north of Kalgoorlie. 
Var. celastroides may be briefly described by foresters as a 
coarse form of var. gracilis. 
The differences appear to be as follows. Both are trees 
(in Western Australia) of medium size, with brown timber. 
Var. gracilis. 
Var. celastroides. 
J uvenile leaves . . . 
Already described 
Coarser, with often 
thicker leaves and 
venation more pro- 
minent. 
Branchlets 
Slender, round, scar- Commonly angular, 
cely angular often quadrangular. 
Mature leaves 
Shiny 
Dull or glaucous. 
Flowers 
Anthers of tyfiica, of 
var. gracilis and var. 
celastroides alike 
Fruits 
Larger, sometimes 
much larger, some- 
times more urceo- 
late. 
I have considered the question of keeping var. gracilis and 
var. celastroides apart as species, but although extreme forms 
would appear to justify this step, I have some forms which can 
only be separated from one variety or the other with the greatest 
difficulty, if at all. Nor could I, in the field, say that the two 
forms were sufficiently distinct as to be accounted different 
species. 
5. — E. uncinata (Turcz.). 
I only came across (with certainty) this species in two districts 
in neither of which did it appear to be very plentiful. I have 
other incomplete material, concerning which I reserve judgment. 
[a) Kalgan Plains, with narrow leaves and the juvenile 
leaves glaucous. A round-headed many-stemmed shrub of a few 
feet, with red buds. Sometimes a spindly, rather erect shrub.
