" Generally leaning, few met with upright. Bark of a port-wine colour in patches, 
at times almost the whole of the trunk of this one colour. Not of much value 
commercially." On tops of ridges, Nerriga (J. L. Boorman). Evidently these were 
wind-swept trees. 
" Four miles from Robertson, going south, a great deal of it. Trees of immense 
size " (Andrew Murphy). 
" Trees with rather low spreading tops, with rough bark on the butt. They 
rather resemble the Black Sally (E. stellulata) of New England in the limbs. Between 
Moss Vale and Paddy's River (Forest Guard William Dunn, No. 23). 
" Like Ironbark at base to half-way up trunk, then smooth up to the branches." 
Wattle Ridge, near Hill Top, Mittagong (E. Cheel). 
" Called locally ' White Top.' Very tall tree, with dark persistent bark at the 
base, and ribbony towards the branches, the inner bark of a whitish colour. Very 
strongly reminiscent of E. viminalis." Hill Top (J. L. Boorman). 
Ben Bullen, near Wallerawang. (J.H.M. and J. L. Boorman.) 
As it has been commonly confused with other species in the past, its range will 
probably be extended in the near future.
