Good morning Sir Initially didn't understand what the KEY meant by "stamens fused into a ring at the base" ...... thought what was that "ring" they were telling..... thought would check on Monday by revisiting! Then saw your post <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/indiantreepix/kPo3kPIFFDM/DH72LMMN-IYJ> and all became clear.
Yes, I did note your question in Dave's garden forum.... couldn't find any clue, except a plate <http://ia700802.us.archive.org/BookReader/BookReaderImages.php?id=mobot31753002719513&itemPath=%2F21%2Fitems%2Fmobot31753002719513&server=ia700802.us.archive.org&page=n94_w464> and lit. <http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/7356#page/94/mode/1up>informing *Metrosideros citrina <http://ia600802.us.archive.org/BookReader/BookReaderImages.php?id=mobot31753002719513&itemPath=%2F21%2Fitems%2Fmobot31753002719513&server=ia600802.us.archive.org&page=n93_w444>* has very harsh leaf. Older literature all thinks they are synonymous, as you have already pointed out..... I think the difference would be minute one.
