[This summer I have further, through William Stewart, Esq., been favoured by receiving from Sir F. Mueller, Government Botanist, Victoria, seeds of E. conifera1— these have just germinated; also of E. pauciflora, the White Gum already mentioned, as growing so well in Arran.]

Eucalyptus conifera

Eucalyptus pauciflora

Not in APNI; misreading of coccifera?
