Abstract


Spherical oil glands of lysigenous origin have been observed as a conspicuous feature of the phloem of 41 species of Eucalyptus. They occur in seven series of species, six of which are very closely related.

Details of their development form rays of phloem parenchyma are described and their contents and functions discussed.
