A very distinct-looking variety, accidentally omitted in the body of this book. It is abundant in many parts of Marlborough and Canterbury, usually on the lower ranges flanking the eastern side of the Southern Alps; whereas the typical state is more common in the humid climate of Westland and Nelson. Dr. Cockayne considers that both forms are truly deciduous. |
