Under the name of “Bastard Myall,” Taree, it is used for jaws of hand- 
screws, marking-gauges, and turnery generally. 
It has much in common with our harder coast wattle-timbers generally. 
They are usually used for fuel, but the tide of inquiry into the merits of our native 
timbers has assuredly set in, and I look for increased demand for this member of 
the Myall class. 
Size.—A medium-sized tree, attaining in the w^ell-watered, good soil creek- 
banks of the South Coast, a trunk-diameter of 2 feet. 
At the other end of the State (Macpherson Range), it attains a height of 
30 feet ( W . Dunn). 
Habitat .—The following localities are mentioned in the “ Flora Austra- 
liensis” :— 
Queensland .—Moreton Bay, Dawson and Burnett Rivers ( F . Mueller ).

River and Illawarra (A. Cunningham).

The type was collected by Allan Cunningham on the Shoalhaven Biver, 
N.S.W., and the drawing was made from a plant from a locality not far distant. 
It is chiefly a coast species, and common on eastern mountain slopes. Inter¬ 
mittently it extends a considerable distance westerly.
