Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus badjensis was first formally described in 1924 by Wilfred de Beuzeville and Marcus Welch "at an elevation of about 4,000 feet, three miles south of the Big Badja Mountain". The description was published in Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales.[5][6] The specific epithet (badjensis) is a reference to the distribution of this eucalypt. The ending -ensis is a Latin suffix "denoting place, locality [or] country".[1][7]
Distribution and habitat
Big Badja gum is found in wet forest, on hills and plateaus on the eastern side of the Southern Tablelands in New South Wales. It grows in soils that are relatively fertile and where the rainfall is high and occurs from Big Badja Hill to Cathcart and Brown Mountain, west of Bega.[1][2][8]
