Figure 15. Distribution <strong>of</strong> E. tessmanniana Becc.<br />

Habitat and ecology<br />

E. tessmanniana is a forest species found on well-drained soils in closed-canopy<br />

forest.<br />

Notes<br />

In common with E. quinquecostulata, E. tessmanniana has not been recognised as a<br />

distinct species since Beccari’s original description (Beccari, 1910). Tuley (1995)<br />

suggested this species represented a juvenile form <strong>of</strong> an unspecified species, however,<br />

recent studies <strong>of</strong> herbarium material and subsequent field collections have proved this<br />

not to be the case. Fertile material <strong>of</strong> this species is needed for a more complete<br />

description to be made.<br />
