Forest Tree Series Leaflet on E. deglupta
Photographs and fresh specimens of E. deglupta along with the latest detailed description of the species prepared by me were sent to the Forestry and Timber Bureau in Canberra, for preparation by John Turnbull of a leaflet (No. 175) in their Forest Tree Series seen here.

Note that for “leaves of the mature tree” the leaflet illustrated both the broad type of variety schlechteri (No. 3) and the narrower type with acute drip tips (No. 4) like those of variety deglupta, but did not make reference to that distinction in the text. The map included overemphasised somewhat the actual distribution of the species.
