Description
Eucalyptus conica is a tree that typically grows to a height of Шаблон:Cvt and forms a lignotuber. It has rough, flaky greyish bark with some paler patches, on the trunk and larger branches, smooth whitish bark on the thinner branches. Young plants and coppice regrowth have egg-shaped leaves Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. Adult leaves are the same dull green or bluish colour on both sides, lance-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are mostly arranged along a branching inflorescence, each branch with seven buds, the peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds on pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are oval to diamond-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a conical, rounded or beaked operculum. Flowering occurs between July and December and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody, conical capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves near the level of the rim or enclosed below it.[1][2][3]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus conica was first formally described in 1900 by Henry Deane and Joseph Maiden and the description was published in Proceedings of the Linnean Society of New South Wales.[4][5] The specific epithet (conica) is derived from the Latin word conicus meaning "conical" and refers to the shape of the fruit.[1]
Distribution and habitat
Fuzzy box grows on heavier alluvial soils in grassy woodland from near Wagga Wagga to the Northern Tablelands in New South Wales and Carnarvon National Park in Queensland.
