B. oblongifolia, Cav. Anal. Hist. Nat. i. 225, Ic. vi. t. 542; R. Br. in Trans. Linn. Soc. x. 208, Prod. 394; Meissn. in DC. Prod. xiv. 461, appears to be referrible to B. integrifolia, the specimens of Sieber, n. 5, and from Mount Lindsay, Fraser, have rather more coriaceous leaves than usual with the transverse veins more prominent, approaching in some degree B. dentata, but not otherwise distinguishable from the typical B. integrifolia. B. glauca, and B. salicifolia, Cav. Anal. Hist. Nat. i. 230, 231, Ic. vi. 31, B. asplenifolia, Salisb. Prod. 51, B. cuneifolia, and B. reticulata, Hoffmsg. in Roem. and Schult. Syst. iii. Mant. 379; Meissn. in DC. Prod. xiv. 466, Hakea pubescens Hort. Cels. in Steud. Nom. Bot. ed. 2, are garden plants which appear to have been correctly referred to B. integrifolia, although several of them have been described only as to their foliage.
26. B. dentata, Linn. f. Suppl. 127. A small tree of 15 to 20 ft. closely allied to B. oblongifolia. Leaves shortly petiolate, cuneate oblong, 4 to 8 in. long, 1 to 2 in. broad, irregularly toothed, the margins slightly recurved, white underneath with the primary transverse veins more prominent than in B. integrifolia and not so white. Spikes oblong or cylindrical, usually larger than in B. integrifolia but the flowers in all other respects as well as the fruits entirely those of B. integrifolia. Styles about 1½ in. long, becoming straight, with a small narrow stigmatic end.—R. Br. in Trans. Linn. Soc. x. 210, Prod. 396; Meissn. in DC. Prod. xiv. 462; F. Muell. Fragm. vii. 57.

Sect. 4. Orthostylis.—Leaves flat or undulate, regularly or rarely irregularly serrate pinnatifid or pinnate, with short lobes or segments. Perianth straight or the limb rarely reflexed. Style after the perianth limb has opened curved upwards at the base only, then strait rigid and erect, the stigmatic end prominently angled and furrowed or striate.
The foliage is that of Cyrtostylis but the regular rigid erect often almost imbricate styles give the cones after the flowers have opened a different aspect, and the stigmatic ends of the styles are well marked. A few species have the styles elegantly curved before they are set free from the perianth-limb, and B. latifolia in its flowers and styles is almost intermediate between Eubanksia and Orthostylis.
27. B. latifolia, R. Br. in Trans. Linn. Soc. x. 208, Prod. 394. A low but stout shrub, the branches densely tomentose. Leaves shortly petiolate, obovate-oblong, often truncate, irregularly serrate with short usually prickly teeth, contracted at the base, 4 to 8 in. long, 1½ to 3 in. broad, flat, minutely tomentose but not white underneath, with prominent transverse veins and reticulations. Spikes oblong-cylindrical, 3 to 5 in. long. Perianth slender, about 1 in. long, the tube shortly silky-pubescent, the limb glabrous, narrow, acute, scarcely 2 lines long. Style becoming straight and spreading as in Eubanksia, with a very small stigmatic end. Fruiting cones large and thick; capsules villous, not thick, protruding, about 6 or 7 lines diameter.—Meissn. in DC. Prod. xiv. 4; Bot. Mag. t. 2406; B. robur, Cav. Anal. Hist. Nat. i.
