Description
Eucalyptus conspicua is a tree with rough, thick, fibrous bark on the trunk to its small branches. The crown of the tree is dull bluish green and includes juvenile, intermediate and adult leaves. Young plants have leaves that are arranged in opposite pairs and are sessile, glaucous, egg-shaped, heart-shaped or more or less round, Шаблон:Cvt long and wide. Adult leaves are the same dull bluish green or glaucous on both sides, lance-shaped to curved, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide on a petiole up to Шаблон:Cvt long. The flower buds are borne in groups of seven on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, the individual buds sessile or on a pedicel up to Шаблон:Cvt long. Mature buds are spindle-shaped to diamond-shaped, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with a conical operculum. Flowering occurs between January and May and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody conical to hemispherical capsule Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide with the valves level with the rim or extending beyond it.[1][2][3][4]
Taxonomy and naming
Eucalyptus conspicua was first formally described in 1991 by Lawrie Johnson and Ken Hill and the description was published in the journal Telopea.[5] The specific epithet (conspicua) is a Latin word meaning "visible" or "prominent",[6] referring to the distinctive glaucous colour of the tree, making it stand out from other vegetation in its habitat.[3]
Distribution and habitat
Gippsland swamp-gum grows in poorer soils, especially on hillsides or on damp heathy flats. It occurs south from Eden in New South Wales to Genoa in Victoria.[2][4]
