Watheroo rabbit fence (M. Koch, No. 1608). 
At Dongarra, not far from the beach, is a dense growth of slender White Gums, 
ribbony at butt, which reminds one of dense Mallee, but not true Mallee, 20-26 feet 
high, trunk 4 inches diameter. Wood very tough, a little brown at heart. Operculum 
a little ribbed. Broad, coarse suckers. Glaucous buds. It is very close to typical 
incrassata, certainly a connecting link (J.H.M.). These trees display a good deal of 
similarity to those in Mr. Lane Poole's photograph of the trees at Kurrawang. 
" Shrub, 6-8 feet. Bark red. Limestone Hill, Lynton, Pt. Gregory, W.A." 
(Oldfield), Herb. Barbey Boissier. A small fruited form, E. dumosa. Port Gregory 
is a little further to the north of Dongarra and remains the most northern coastal 
locality.

PHOTOGRAPHIC ILLUSTRATIONS. 
1. A characteristic specimen as seen in the coastal districts of South Australia. This particular 
view was taken at Memory Cove, near Port Lincoln, S.A., with Flinders' inscription (restored) 
in memory of his boat's crew lost near Cape Catastrophe, 1802. 
2. Trees at the head of the Kurrawang Wood Line, 82 miles from Kurrawang, near Kalgoorlie,
