Adult leaves are glossy green, slightly paler on the lower surface, lance-shaped to curved, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide, tapering to a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged on the ends of branchlets on a branched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, each branch of the peduncle with seven buds on pedicels Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval to pear-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a conical to rounded operculum with a small point in the centre. Flowering occurs between May and August and the flowers are creamy white. The fruit is an urn-shaped capsule with thin walls and the valves enclosed in the fruit.[1][2][3][4][5]
Taxonomy and naming
The Melville Island bloodwood was first described in 1934 by William Blakely who gave it the name Eucalyptus nesophila and published the description in his book A Key to the Eucalypts.[6] In 1995, Ken Hill and Lawrie Johnson changed the name to Corymbia nesophila.[5][7]
Distribution and habitat
Corymbia nesophila has a disjunct distribution throughout the tropical north of Australia and is common in the east Kimberley region of Western Australia, the top end and islands off the coast of the Northern Territory and on the Cape York Peninsula of Queensland. It grows on basalt or laterite on the lower slopes and flat areas with sandy or sandy-loam soils.[1][5]
