Excerpt from Eucalyptographia: A Descriptive Atlas of the Eucalypts of Australia and the Adjoining Islands
The original discoverer of this species found it near recherche-bay, and it was noticed subsequently in the same region by Dr. R. Brown, Sir Joseph Hooker, Mr. R. Gunn, Mr. T. Stephens and Mr. F. Abbott. To the two last-mentioned gentlemen I am indebted for material, enabling me to describe and illustrate this species. It may have been more frequent before Hobart was built, but it still occurs, though sparingly, within two miles of the city. Perhaps it extends to Port Davey, the interj aoent coast-regrou being botanically almost unexplored.
