My dear Sir,
I send you in another packet some specimens of an Angophora from Narrabri;
3
NSW.
it is remarkable for the flattened petioles and the hairy young shoots and calyces. It is very different in growth from A. intermedia which is abundant in that district and is easily distinguished even at a distance. It is not A. subvelutina , which has sessile leaves. I shall be glad of your opinion.
Believe me,
Yours very faithfully
H Deane
Angophora intermedia
Angophora subvelutina
