Abstract

This investigation was undertaken originally to determine the
chromosome number' of various eucalypts. Observations of the
course of meiosis have been made in the pollen mother cells of eight
species, and, as no work seems to have been carried out on meiosis
in Eucalyptus previously, it seemed desirable to place the main
results of the investigation on record in view of the important place
which the genus occupies in our flora. The account of the meiotic
cycle given should be reasonably typical of the process in Tasmanian
forms at least.
