Young plants and coppice regrowth have oblong, egg-shaped or lance-shaped leaves Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The adult leaves are thick, linear to narrow elliptic, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are arranged in groups of three or seven in leaf axils on an unbranched peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are pear-shaped to oval, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide, usually ribbed and with a beaked operculum. Flowering mainly occurs from July to November and the flowers are cream-coloured to pale yellow. The fruit is a woody, cylindrical to barrel-shaped or cup-shaped capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a pedicel usually Шаблон:Cvt long.[1][2][3]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus captiosa was first formally described in 1993 by Ian Brooker and Stephen Hopper and the description was published in the journal Nuytsia from a specimen near Jerramungup.[4] The specific epithet (captiosa) is a word Latin meaning "deceptive",[5] referring to the fine leaves, which are very different from those of the related E. incrassata.[2]
Distribution and habitat
This eucalypt grow in sandy and gravelly soils in heath between Tambellup and Jerramungup in the Avon Wheatbelt, Esperance Plains and Mallee biogeographic regions.[1][2][3]
Conservation status
Eucalyptus captiosa is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.[3]
