Description

Corymbia petalophylla is a tree that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber. It has thick, rough, yellowish, tessellated and flaky bark on the trunk and branches, smooth bark only on the thinnest branches. Young plants and coppice regrowth have egg-shaped leaves that are Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Adult leaves are the same shade of dull green on both sides, lance-shaped or 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, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with an operculum that is rounded with a central knob or conical. Flowering occurs from July to September and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody barrel-shaped, urn-shaped or shortened spherical capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves enclosed in the fruit.[1][2]

Taxonomy and naming

This bloodwood was first formally described in 1991 by Ian Brooker and Anthony Bean who gave it the name Eucalyptus petalophylla and published the description in the journal Austrobaileya.[3][4] In 1995 Ken Hill and Lawrie Johnson changed the name to Corymbia petalophylla.[2][5] The specific epithet (petalophylla) is from Greek words meaning "broad" and "leaf", referring to the broad juvenile leaves.[1][2]

Distribution and habitat

Corymbia petalophylla grows with C. trachyphloia, C. watsoniana and Eucalyptus baileyana, in soil derived from granite and occurs in the Burnett district of south-eastern Queensland.[2]

Conservation status

This eucalypt is classified as of "least concern" under the Queensland Government Nature Conservation Act 1992.[6]
