Description

Eucalyptus baileyana is a tree that grows to a height of Шаблон:Convert and forms a lignotuber. It has persistent, red-brown or brown-black, stringy or fibrous bark. Young plants and coppice regrowth have hairy, often bright pink tips, and lance-shaped leaves Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide. Adult leaves are lance-shaped or curved, Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide on a petiole Шаблон:Convert long. The leaves are dark green on one side and a lighter green on the other. The flowers are borne in groups of seven in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Convert long, the individual buds on a pedicel Шаблон:Convert long. Mature buds are club-shaped to spindle-shaped, Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide with a rounded or conical operculum with a small point on the end. Flowering mainly occurs from October to January and the flowers are white with the stamens arranged in four bundles. The fruit is a woody urn-shaped or shortened spherical capsule Шаблон:Convert long and Шаблон:Convert wide with the valves level with the rim or slightly above.[1][2][3]

Taxonomy and naming

Eucalyptus baileyana was first formally described in 1878 by Ferdinand von Mueller and the description was published in Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae.[4][5] The species name (baileyana) honours Frederick Manson Bailey who collected the type specimen from near Moreton Bay.[2][6]

Distribution

Bailey's stringybark is often found on hills, ridges and coastal lowlands as part of dry sclerophyll forest or woodland communities growing in nutrient poor, shallow sandy soils over sandstone. In New South Wales it is found along the coast north from Coffs Harbour and across the border into Queensland[1] in a narrow belt that is usually less than Шаблон:Convert from the coast. It extends as far north as Brisbane with a sporadic distribution further north to around the Blackdown Tableland. Species commonly associated with the tree include Eucalyptus planchoniana, Eucalyptus cloeziana, Eucalyptus citriodora, Eucalyptus gummifera and Eucalyptus intermedia.[6]

Conservation

This eucalypt is classed as of "least concern" in Queensland under the Queensland Government Nature Conservation Act 1992.[7]
