Description

Eucalyptus amygdalina is a tree that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber.

Adult leaves are arranged alternately along the stems, the same shade of bluish green on both sides, lance-shaped to linear, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flowers are borne in groups of eleven to fifteen or more in leaf axils on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual flowers on a pedicel Шаблон:Convert long. The buds are oval to club-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long, Шаблон:Cvt wide and the stamens are white. Flowering mainly occurs from November to January and the fruit are cup-shaped to hemispherical, Шаблон:Cvt long and wide.[1]

Taxonomy

Eucalyptus amygdalina was first formally described in 1806 by Jacques Labillardière in his book Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen.[2][3] The specific epithet (amygdalina) means "almond".[1]

Distribution

Black peppermint is endemic to Tasmania where it is widespread in the drier, north-eastern side of the island, from coastal areas extending well inland to the edges of plateaux[1] where it is part of dry eucalypt forest communities.[4]
