Abstract
From measurements of fruit lengths, fruit weights, and lengths of fruiting umbels of trees from the species Eucalyptus elaeophora and E. goniocalyx and their presumed hybrid swarm, a formula is calculated for taxonomic classification using statistical discriminant theory. The rates of misclassification expected with the use of this formula are estimated. A simple geometrical model of the relationship of the species and the hybrid is investigated.Keywords
