Common Names of Eucalypts 
This section shows the great confusion existing in the Australian 
States as regards the common names of many of the Eucalypts, such 
terms as Blue, Red, Grey, White, Yellow, Spotted, Swamp, and Box 
Gum, etc., being applied by settlers and bushmen, in some instances, 
to a dozen distinct species. Under the heading Eucalypts, in the text, 
pp. 161-173, an attempt is made to avoid this confusion by adopting 
one common name, as a rule, for each species or variety.
