Other Queensland localities are given by Bailey, and the following specimens 
from the Richmond River to the Queensland border are represented in the National 
Herbarium, Sydney : 
" Bricklow (?) Scrub, Kent's Lagoon and Bokkara Creek, 26th December, 1846." 
(Dr. Leichhardt.) 
Kyogle (E. G. McLean No. 25); Woodburn, Richmond River (J. L. Boorman 
and J.H.M.); Lismore (W. Baeuerlen); Ballina (W. Baeuerleu); Richmond River 
(C. Fawcett). 
Bark smooth lichen stained the timber of a wavy outline with the very thin 
bark naturally following this outline and having a peculiar appearance. Timber hard, 
pale, little figure. Acacia Creek, Macpherson Range (Forest Guard W. Dunn). The 
herbarium specimens are interesting and seem to indicate a form intermediate between 
C. lucidum and C. buxi folium. 
4. C. buxifdium Bentham, in Bl. Fl. iii, 422 (1866). 
Glabrous and much-branched. 
Leaves ovate or broadly elliptical, obtuse or obscurely and obtusely acuminate, narrowed into a 
short petiole, rarely exceeding 1 inch in length, coriaceous, very smooth and shining, the 
veins few, very oblique and scarcely conspicuous. 
Flowers 4-merous, very small, rather numerous in pedunculate cymes about as long as the leaves, 
the pedicels short except those in the forks. 
Corolla not 2 lines long, the tube exceedingly short, glabrous inside, the lobes much longer. 
Stamens exserted. 
Stigma mitre-shaped. 
Fruit of C. lucidum or rather smaller. (B.F1. iii, 422.) 
The wood is of a light colour, close in the grain, and useful for turnery work. 
Habitat. According to Bentham we have it from Queensland Burnett and 
Dawson Rivers (F. Mueller); also in Leichhardt' s collection. 
I have seen it from Killarney (C. T. White), which is near the New South Wales 
border, and it is extremely unlikely that, with very similar conditions extending for a 
considerable distance, it does not occur in New South Wales. It should be searched for . 
5. C. didymum Roxb. 
This is an Indian species, not known for Australia until Mueller recorded it from 
Rockingham Bay, Queensland, in Fragm., IX, 186. 
6. C. vjcoinii folium F. Muell. 
In Trans. Phil. Inst. Viet, iii, 47 (1859). 
A shrub attaining 16 feet or more, with very numerous slender divaricate branches, the smaller 
oranchlets sometimes spinescent.
