Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
Eucalyptus eremicola, commonly known as Vokes Hill mallee,[1] is a species of mallee that is native to South Australia and Western Australia. It has rough bark near the base, smooth bark above, linear to lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of between nine and fifteen, white flowers and shortened spherical fruit.
Description
Eucalyptus eremicola is a mallee, sometimes a tree, that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber. It has rough bark on the lower half of the stems, light grey-brown bark that is flaky and shedding above. The adult leaves are linear to narrow lance-shaped, the same glossy green on both sides, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a conical operculum. Flowering occurs between March and May and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody, shortened sphere, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves extended beyond the rim with the remnants of the style attached.[1][2][3][4]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus eremicola was first formally described in 1975 by Clifford David Boomsma from a specimen collected in 1967 by J. Johnson at Serpentine Lake in the Great Victoria Desert of South Australia. The description was published in the South Australian Naturalist.[5] The specific epithet (eremicola) is derived from the Ancient Greek eremos meaning "solitary" or "lonely" and the Latin suffix -cola meaning "dweller" or "inhabitant".[6]
Eucalyptus eremicola is part of the Eucalyptus subgenus Symphyomyrtus section Bisectae and subsection Destitutae. It is part of the same subseries (Oleaginae) as E. kochii, E. longissima and E. ultima.[2]
In 2005, Dean Nicolle described two subspecies of E. eremicola and the names have been accepted by the Australian Plant Census:
- Eucalyptus eremicola Boomsma subsp. eremicola;[7][8]
- Eucalyptus eremicola subsp. peeneri (Blakely) Nicolle.[9][10]
Subspecies eremicola has narrower, more glossy leaves than subspecies peeneri but intergrades between the two are common. (Subspecies peeneri was formerly known as Eucalyptus oleosa var. peeneri Blakely).[2][11]
Distribution and habitat
It is found in shrubland on sandplains and dunes where it grows in loamy-sandy soils. It is found in the Great Victoria Desert region of South Australia and Western Australia, the north west of the Little Sandy Desert and as far west as Sandstone and Leonora.[2]
Conservation status
Vokes Hill mallee is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[4]
