It is common on the Upper Murray and Tumut Rivers, and in the counties 
of Selwyn, Wynyard, Buccleuch, and Cowley generally. Further north, we have 
it from Burrinjuck, Jenolan Caves, &c. Going still further north, it is found on 
the Nulla Mountain, Rylstone (Mudgee) districts, and in New England (Nundle and 
Walcha districts). The northern specimens have for the most part a smaller fruit. 
As evidence that some of the northern trees are a good size, I published the following 
note in Journ. Roy. Soc. N.S.W.i vol. xlviii, p. 428 (1914) : " Tall trees of 60-80 feet, 
thick straight stems of 20-40 feet up to the first branches, sound and of first-class 
quality, are fairly plentiful in many of the gullies running down from the high table- 
lands south at Upper Meroo, between Hargraves and Mudgee. (J. L. Boorman.)"
