" Eucalyptus in the West Indies " (ib., x, \'2o, 1910). Additional experience 
has been gained, and notes are published on results obtained at St. Lucia-, Dominica, 
Montserrat, Antigua, St. Kitts, Grenada, St. Vincent, Virgin Islands, and Barbados. 
Neither paper readily bears abstraction, and both should be referred to. 
JAMAICA, 
The Gums (Eucalyptus) get very much blown, and seldom look well except in 
clumps, where, for the first four or five years, they are sheltered on the outside by other 
trees. (See Kew Report for 1879, p. 16.) 
E. globulus Labill. ' The first batch of E. globulus seeds were imported in 1869 ; 
the seedlings were planted out at the Cinchona plantations seven years ago. Some of 
these now measure upwards of 60 feet in height,, with the trunks 3 feet in girth, five 
feet above the ground. Thus in ten or twelve years large timber trees are producible. 
No more valuable tree could be planted on our barren hills that are readily accessible 
to the plains." (Kew Report for 1877, p. 30.) 
E. maculata Hook., var. citriodora " Oae of the best trees for the plains here is 
E. citriodora. You can safely recommend this for warm climates. Its foliage, as its 
name denotes, is beautifully fragrant, the tree itself is fast growing and hardy." (Kew 
Report for 1882, p. 21.) 
UNITED STATES. 
This is only a very brief list of the Eucalyptus literature published in the United 
States, but it may be suggestive.

San Francisco, 187C. 
This is based on a lecture he delivered at Los Angeles in 1875 (pages 9-40), but 
it mainly consists of some writings of Mueller's. The details contained in the lecture 
are but slight, but the writer is one of the pioneers of Eucalyptus planting in California 
on a large scale, having set a practical example at his ranch near Santa Barbara. For 
an account of Mr. Cooper's results, se^ McClatohie. 
LYON, W. S. " Some notes on the genus Eucalyptus." Th'rd Biennial Rep., 
California State Board of Forestry, 1*90. Chiefly deals with the planting of them in 
California. Special allusion is made to E. cladocalyx (corynocalyx) (Sugar Gum), 
E. divemcolor (Karri), E. maryi-iinta (Jarrali), E. Gunnii (White Swamp Gum).
