Eucalyptus foecunda, commonly known as narrow-leaved red mallee,[1] Fremantle mallee or coastal dune mallee,[2] is a species of plant in the myrtle family that is endemic to Western Australia. It has rough bark on the trunk, smooth bark above, narrow lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of nine or eleven, creamy white flowers and cup-shaped fruit. It was previously included with the more widespread Eucalyptus leptophylla.

Description

Eucalyptus foecunda is a mallee that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt, occasionally a tree to Шаблон:Cvt, and forms a lignotuber. The bark is flaky at the base, otherwise smooth, grey and reddish-brown in colour. Young plants and coppice regrowth have dull green, elliptic to lance-shaped leaves that are Шаблон:Cvt and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Adult leaves are narrow lance-shaped to narrow oblong, the same glossy green on both sides, Шаблон:Cvt and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in leaf axils in groups of nine or eleven on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on pedicels Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval to spindle-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a conical or beaked operculum Шаблон:Cvt long. Flowering occurs in August or from January to February and the flowers are creamy white. The fruit is a woody, cup-shaped capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and wide.[1][2]

This mallee has a similar appearance to Eucalyptus petrensis but E. petrensis has a more persistent style on the fruit.[3]

Eucalyptus leucophylla was once included in E. foecunda but has broader juvenile leaves, mostly smooth bark and a shorter, more rounded operculum.[2][4]

Taxonomy and naming

Eucalyptus foecunda was first formally described in 1844 by Johannes Conrad Schauer and the description was published in Lehmann's book Plantae Preissianae from a specimen collected at Freemantle.[5][6] The specific epithet (foecunda) refers to the prolific flowering of this species.[2]

Distribution and habitat

Narrow-leaved red mallee grows on limy sands near the coast of Western Australia between Lancelin and Mandurah.[2]

Conservation status

This eucalypt is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[1]
